Introducing Spirit Ridge, Dean’s new album (recorded at Crinale, Italy (the land of his lion tamer ancestor) with producer Don Antonio). Following directly on from his highly acclaimed collaborations with Calexico, the songs on Spirit Ridge are both monumental and deeply personal, rooted in a liminal hinterland which connects the lush Italian hills, the US desert states and post industrial Scotland. A thrilling, unique blend of Scottish roots and rocky Americana, with added desert noir.
The Sinners make a glorious, brass infused, driving sound – Craig Ross (electric guitar), Philip Cardwell (trumpet) and Adam McMillan (bass), with Dean’s searingly soulful voice upfront.
Expect a joyous mix of songs and stories from Dean’s 12 album career, and a life on the road. Earworm inducing melodies and great songs; the heart of a rock’n’roller combined with the spellbinding delivery of folk’s best storytellers, with humour and melancholy intertwined.
2024 highlights included standing ovations at Cambridge Folk Festival, the Netherlands and USA, with 2025 kicking off with the launch of Spirit Ridge at Celtic Connections and a short Scottish tour before heading off to Australia. Catch them while you can!
