About this product
Twelve inch vinyl pressing. Fresh from releasing his excellent Live At The Mac album, 2016 Northern Ireland Music Prize winner Ciaran Lavery is back with A King At Night EP - a collection of Bonnie Prince Billy numbers. Will Oldham is an artist that has long fascinated Lavery and this acts as 'a fitting nod of appreciation' to the legendary songwriter. Given the depth of Oldham's back catalog 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, it's 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. A profoundly beautiful tribute to the work of Bonnie Prince Billy.

2018 . Irish singer-songwriter Ciaran Lavery may be decorated at home by the Northern Ireland music Prize (for his 2016 album Let Bad In) and might have totted up over 80 million streams during his five year solo career, but it's his unrivalled knack for a poetic heart-stopping lyric that's set to earn him wider recognition as a treasured singer-songwriter. His third album Sweet Decay is a collection of strummed acoustic fragility that's as comforting as it is at times devastating. Beyond the classic melodies, however, it's the storytelling that sets Ciaran Lavery apart, one that can be as brutal as Angel Olsen and as delicate as Neil Young.

2009 twelve inch vinyl pressing. The remix comes courtesy of NYC legends Rub 'n' Tug (Thomas Bullock and Eric Duncan), who create what will inevitably be one of the remixes of 2009. They flip the track into something sinister and ever-growing-a dark loopy anthemic interpretation that does nothing but help cement their status as one of the most creative and exciting remixers and musicians working today.
