PLACE TO LIE
(Chris Adams/
Backshop Music)

Well I gotta find me a place to lie
Yeah I gotta find me a place to lie
Some little churchyard, shady and green,
In some little village that I’ve never seen,
Down with the beetles, down with the stones
Down with the zombies in the dead zone.

Yes I gotta find me a place to lie,
Said I gotta find me a place to lie,
Out on the ocean, stormy and deep
Under the waves, …

Many thanks to UK Country Radio.com for making String Driven, Feature Artists on the weekend of 1st & 2nd August. Tracks from the new album were played every hour and they also aired an interview with Chris Adams in which he talked about the band lineup, present and past.

The band had a ball in Bavaria in May. They played gigs at Cafe Konrad in Vilsbiburg and the Salzstadel, Landshut, airing songs from the new album and some classics from the past. The crowds loved the sound and the band has been invited back for a longer tour. Thanks again to promoter John Flanagan and to everyone who made us feel so welcome. In the meantime, we thought you might like a taste of the band’s weekend in “another country”.
