For the premiere of ‘Man In Full’ on Netflix this week we’ve released three different mixes to our cover of ‘God’s Gonna Cut You Down’ featured in the series. There are layers of stories and history in songs, we’d like to give a nod & thank you to those who originally recorded some of the first versions: Golden Gate Quartet 1946-1947, The Jubalaires 1947, Bill Landford & The Landfordaires 1950, Odetta 1957. We discovered the song being fans of Odetta and after Johnny Cash’s recording was released discovered others.
We initially tried doing a version ages ago but weren’t sure where it should go, so it was curious being asked to approach the song again in a few different ways for this series. Big thanks to those who helped collaborate on it along the way, all the best to everyone we hope you can enjoy & find good things along the way.
It is Peter Hayes’s birthday and us fans are getting the presents! A brand new music video for “Some Kind of Ghost”, directed by Daniel Mancini, is posted HERE and embedded below:
