Half Deaf Clatch - Doon Street Blues EP (2025) Hi-Res

This month's release is EXTRA special, as it's a collaboration between myself, and my good friend and author Richard Wall.

When I played at Upton Blues Festival in July I spent a very enjoyable 24 hours in the company of Richard, and we talked, a lot. A week or so after the festival Richard sent me a rough draft of a short story, inspired by an anecdote I had told him, about an experience I'd had after playing a show a few years before.

Richard had turned my mundane tale into something wonderfully supernatural, and I loved it. We decided I'd write some songs to go with it, and Richard finished the story. One month later, and here it is in all its glory - 'Doon Street Blues'.

Thirty minutes of Bluesy, Gothic Americana played on acoustic guitar, with gravelly vocals, cello and some other string type things.
