Bitter and Twisted

from Jerilderie (2011) by Bill Jackson

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    My brother Ross and I started writing the songs on this record around the middle of 2008 and a lot of musical adventures have taken place since then to get in the way of finally putting them down. Time has helped the older ones mature through ‘live’ performance and given the newer ones a pony to ride on. Ross and I have developed a really special relationship as brothers through writing together and alone – rhythm in the rhyme, vice versa, truth in lies, lies in truth, war and hell, the bush, family stories, country music, Texas, folklore, fact and fiction etc etc… the beat goes on. Some days we can never get enough of it because it’s so damn exciting and then there are long periods where we settle back into waiting for the next lot to come to us and the beautiful thing is that they always do.

    So many people to thank for the making of this record:
    Ruth Hazleton who has supported me with her musicality, love, support and vision right from the beginning.
    Pete Fidler and I have been making music together since 2006. Pete is a beautiful musician and we have had some fine times and travels together. Probably best summed up by someone who once commented that Pete has a ‘conversation with our lyrics’ and that pretty much says it all.
    Our friends in Nashville who played on this record – Dan, Sergio and Justin: thank you so much for taking these songs to places we could never have imagined. Also to Ruth Hazleton, Suzie Dickinson and Kat Mear who added those beautiful extra bits for us back at home.
