Bonnie "Prince" Billy shares new single, "London May"
Bonnie “Prince” Billy – the persona of musician Will Oldham – has shared "London May" as the second single from his forthcoming album, The Purple Bird.
“London May” was originally written for a horror movie, Night of the Bastard, which the musician/actor London May was involved with.
“When David Ferguson and I were putting songs together for The Purple Bird sessions, I remembered the song I'd made for London's film; I was performing it regularly live, and it didn't feel quite complete… Ferg was game, and we tracked it," explains Oldham. "I'd long begun to want to hear other voices in the song. In the end, we roped in the phenomenal Kentucky-born singer Brit Taylor to sing harmonies and other supporting parts. Her voice is stellar to say the least.”
The Purple Bird will be released on 31 January via Domino, and is available to pre-order now.
