Limited 10" vinyl featuring previously unreleased recordings of Ciaran Lavery interpreting 5 original Bonnie Prince Billy songs. Original RSD release, product not available on any other formats. Will Oldham is an artist that has long fascinated Lavery and this release acts as 'a fitting nod of appreciation' to the legendary songwriter. Given the depth of Oldham's back catalogue as Bonnie Prince Billy, Ciaran had a wealth of extraordinary tracks to choose from, leading him to plump for ones 'that sat well within the realms of the world we created in the studio'. New Partner, the lead track from the EP, is a beautifully delicate rumination on new - found love, while Horses features exquisite strings and brass. Bad Man is a punchy, brooding number, its sharp electric guitar part adding a menacing undertone. Beast For Thee is entirely subtle yet incredibly powerful and perhaps the EP's most sensitive moment, while closer Miss Me When I Burn needs only simple piano, coupled with Ciaran's sensitive, bruised, vocal performance to carry the weight of such an emotional track.
