Meet Bill Callahan

Jonas

Bill Callahan sings like a guy in a story of Cormac McCarthy. This 45 year old from Silver Spring, Maryland, got a dramatic touch. He takes this lo-fi-intensive stuff to a very special place. Bill Callahan is a statesman for the times. It´s like Leonard Cohen on the prairie.

Callahan released his latest album Apocalypse earlier this year, the fourth soloalbum in his own name. A great album, but not your easy path, more lika a hard stone road. A barren kind of place. It demands your attention.

Nowadays he lives in Austin, Texas and will play live in ”Brilliant Corners of Popular Amusements” in Chicago this Friday Sept 16th. Later he hits Europe with a lovely stop in Gothenburg (cheers Woody West) Nov 17th.
