Jason McNiff returns with a new album Tonight We Ride, a collection of songs from the songwriters that inspired Jason’s writing and playing.
As Jason explains: 'When the pandemic first broke and I took my weekly 'Sundowner' gig online, I found to my surprise a wonderful community of music fans who were ready to support me each week with donations and encouraging messages. I loved playing for people in this new format - who could've guessed it would feel so live and intimate! I sometimes played for 2 hours, all the covers I could think of, and learned many new songs to keep the shows fresh and different. This covers record really grew out of these gigs, and it's been a real privilege to immerse myself in the work of heroes such as Townes Van Zandt and Mark Knopfler. I approached the recording as if they'd been my own songs and went to the same studio and producer (Roger Askew) where I made my most recent record, Dust Of Yesterday. Of course, there are 2 Dylan tracks and 2 by one of my fave guitar players, Bert Jansch. I also got the chance to record material by lesser known, but just as brilliant, artists like Tom Russell and Stephen Foster.'
