My Darling Clementine - “Country Darkness, Christmas Light” A very special My Darling Clementine pre-Christmas concert
A very special My Darling Clementine pre-Christmas concert. Their most recent album Country Darkness - the songs of Elvis Costello has been hailed as a classic by some writers in the US
"Ultimately it’s Dalgleish & King’s performances that make Country Darkness the mighty masterpiece that it is.” GOLDMINE, USA
The new album sees them collaborating with the piano genius Steve Nieve, Costello’s long time right-hand man, as they reinterpret songs from the Costello back catalogue, in particular his more country and country soul flavoured songs.
“like listening to Glen Campbell put his own spin on a great song and hear him make it even greater.” LOUDER THAN WAR
"King and Dalgleish capture every nuance and emotion without ever going over the top or misstepping” RNR4/5****
For this special seasonal show in December Lou and Michael feature a number of the Costello songs, many favourites from MDC’s 9 year back catalogue, as well as some of their favourite seasonal country, folk and blues songs from the pen of such writers as Willie Nelson, Robbie Robertson, Joni Mitchell, Alan Hull, and many more.
