Dean Owens & The Sinners

Artist Of the Year 2021, 2022, 2023 – Americana UK Readers’ Poll

The official launch night for Dean’s hotly anticipated Spirit Ridge album (recorded at Crinale, Italy (the land of his lion tamer ancestor) with producer Don Antonio).

Following directly on from Dean’s 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.

The Sinners big band will be out for this special occasion with core members Craig Ross (guitar), Adam McMillan (double bass) and Philip Cardwell (trumpet) joined by guest Sinners including singer Kirsten Adamson, drums and additional trumpet, with Dean’s searingly soulful voice up front. Humour, melancholy and great songs all intertwined - simultaneously rousing and balm for the soul.
