If you follow a route to an intersection where garage rock meets jazz, where rockabilly meets gothic and where country meets punk, you might well see Black Hay sitting roadside ready to scrounge a cigarette and tell you a few stories.
Stories that you might subsequently find on their Nightsong EP.
Stories that are shadowy – skewed romantica if you will – with echoes of Nick Cave and Mark Lanegan at their most dark hearted and compelling.
Have a listen to the title track and buy the EP from their Bandcamp page here.
