Cowboy Junkies' Collection of Vic Chesnutt Songs To Be Released on February 14, 2011

Legendary Canadian alt-country band Cowboy Junkies will release Demons, a collection of songs by the late Vic Chesnutt, on February 14, 2011. This is the second album in the four-volume Nomad Series via Proper Records and is described by Michael Timmins as “a labour of love” that explores Chesnutt’s deep and much overlooked catalogue.

The band approached Chesnutt’s music with the same sense of adventure that Chesnutt approached his own recordings. Timmins says, “We let happy accidents happen and tried to invest his songs with the same spirit in which they were written, but at the same time adding our own Northern spin. Exploring his songs and delving deeper and deeper into them has been an intense, moving and joyous experience. I don’t think Vic would have wanted it any other way.”

The album includes Wrong Piano, Flirted With You All My Life, See You Around, Betty Lonely, Square Room, Ladle, Supernatural, West of Rome, Strange Language, We Hovered With Short Wings, When the Bottom Fell Out

You can listen to their version of "Old Hotel" and "Flirted With You All My Life" here and "Supernatural" below.
