Down Fell The Doves – Amanda Shires – CD

Description

Shires has blossomed into a truly original voice with ‘Doves,’ which was produced by Andy LeMaster (Bright Eyes, REM) and recorded at his Chase Park Transduction studio in Athens, GA. “Bulletproof” ponders invincibility with the help of a Siberian tiger claw. “Wasted and Rollin’” casts a deep, impressionistic fog. For “Deep Dark Below” Shires’ attention shifts to the underworld, where the devil plays fiddle with a bow made of bones. “Song for Leonard Cohen” has a softer touch, imagining a drunken evening stroll with the master songwriter.
