You might want to grab a torch. Things are
about to get dark. Very dark indeed. Until an
hour ago I'd never heard of Jamey Johnson,
Twiggy Ramirez or Shooter Jennings, but it
appears that in 2013 these three artists combined to release the very arrangement of perennial favourite, 'You Are My Sunshine', that I might have recorded myself, were I in their position. Unsettling, brooding, menacing - the way I've long thought the song should be approached. And these guys nail it.
Jamey Johnson
Turns out that Shooter is Waylon's son,
Jamey's very big on the contemporary country scene and
Twiggy, believe it or not, is Marilyn
Manson's bassist! 'You Are My Sunshine' was
recorded for the soundtrack of an American TV
Series, 'Sons of Anarchy'. Brace yourself.
