Billy Vincent set to release Dead Man’s Shoes on August 20th
Billy Vincent release the second single from their debut album ‘She’ on August 20th through Something Nothing Records.
Highlighted in Paul Moody’s excellent review in Q Magazine as “conjuring up visions of a debauched Mumfords”, ‘Dead Man’s Shoes’ embodies the heady mix of influences that makes their debut album ‘She’ such an intriguing delight.
Centered around the fabulously playful lyrics of Billy Barratt – “If I was a preacher, I’d get Jesus to meet ‘cha……” – and an irresistible chorus, Dead Man’s Shoes initially embraces a country flavour, embellished beautifully by the guest appearance of pedal steel legend B J Cole, before heading into territory inhabited by The Kinks or The Faces.
