Daniel Blumberg joined by Jim White for End Of The Road secret set
Daniel Blumberg was joined by Jim White (Dirty Three) for an End Of The Road secret set.
Blumberg and band - completed by Billy Steiger on violin and Tom Wheatley on double bass - played a four-song show. The quartet performed Minus cut "Madder" and new numbers "Gob" and "My Better Me", before ending with a cover of Neil Young's "Like A Hurricane".
"The personality of all the instrumentation is completely reliant on the personalities," Blumberg told Best Fit of the collaboration. "Their playing is closer to vocals, in a sense. It's like a mutual relationship between the instruments."
"I thought everyone had to play a Neil Young song," he adds, of his cover choice. "I don't really do covers very often because we're always covering our own songs, in a sense. We play them in different ways. I love that song. It's a great song. I thought it was quite similar to his, in a way."
