Incredibly honoured to have the esteemed Post To Wire premiere 'Long Black Veil' from our #SouthernGothic EP!
"The Weeping Willows are Australia’s finest exponents of the stripped-down duo format. One guitar, two superb harmony-rich voices and a talent for both their own songwriting and the interpretation of other’s songs... We’re very pleased to be able to premiere Laura Coates and Andrew Wrigglesworth’s beautiful take on the Danny Dill and Marijohn Wilkin song, made famous by Johnny Cash, Lefty Frizzell and many more – 'Long Black Veil'. As usual, they imbue the song with their own beautiful melancholic and measured sway, courtesy of Coates’ sublime vocal and the exquisite playing and deep, rich voice of Wrigglesworth." - #PostToWire.
Thanks so much for your very kind and generous words and for all you do for the Australian/NZ Americana/Alt-Country scene, PTW. We really appreciate your time and dedication!
