Spirit Ridge CD (Pre Order)
The songs on Spirit Ridge are both monumental and deeply personal, rooted in a liminal hinterland which connects the lush Italian hills, the US desert states and post industrial Scotland.
Recorded at Crinale, a 400 year old farmhouse in the hills of Emilia-Romagna, Italy – the land of Dean’s lion tamer ancestor.
Produced by Dean Owens and Don Antonio (Alejandro Escovedo/Sacri Cuori).
6 panel eco-friendly digisleeve
Release date: 14 February 2025 (Pre-orders will ship by beginning of Feb)
PLEASE NOTE: WHEN YOU ORDER, THE SHIPPING COST INITIALLY SHOWS AS THE HIGHEST RATE (TO USA/AUSTRALIA) BUT WILL AMEND TO THE CORRECT AMOUNT FOR YOUR AREA ONCE YOU ADD YOUR ADDRESS. (Avoid this (and make future ordering easier) by setting up an account))
