Gill Landry - Cinnamon Canyon Blues (2024) [Official Digital Download 24/48]

I found myself homeless at the start of the pandemic and in that drift I landed on a few hundred acres of blue oaks, dust and granite called Cinnamon Canyon in the Sierra Nevada Foothills. What I thought would only be months became years. Long enough for the land to break me in all the ways I unknowingly needed breaking. This album is a small document of that journey. A portrait of certain understandings that came from that death and rebirth of sorts. It was written over 2 years of near total isolation but for a barn cat named Killer and two unknown legends in their 70's who I'd see once every week or two. It was recorded in London in the fall of '22 with dear old friends who lived up to their pre-pandemic word. Produced by Ted Dwane, Paul Frith, and myself. It features Chris Maas on drums, Nick Pini on bass, Klara Soderberg on backing vocals, Nick Etwell on Trumpet and Flugelhorn, Georgina Leach & Odessa Jorgensen on violin, and Malcolm McCarthy on keys.
