Shane’s songs are so good, they make me want to cry!
As a longtime fan of The Pogues, I've been adding their music to my live set throughout the years. The idea of recording the songs came to me after seeing a mural of Shane MacGowan (made by Tony Mills) while on tour. The painting became a focal point of the cover art for 2019's release 'Songs of Shane, Vol. 1'.
I decided to make Vol. 2 while watching Julien Temple’s 2020 documentary, 'Crock of Gold: A Few Rounds with Shane MacGowan'. When I heard the intro to “Gabrielle” by Shane’s first band The Nips, I was compelled to record an updated version which led to the new EP, 'Songs of Shane, Vol. 2'.
