Douglas E Powell Good Men Get Lost at Sea

Have just been sent the lovely (and it is lovely) and quite wonderful new album by Douglas E Powell & The Rising Spirit Good Men get Lost at Sea. I have played a few early versions of some of the tracks on my Test Transmission mixes over the last year or so (Nash's Tower, Penny Lies) and have had the pleasure of Doug letting me hear a few of these tracks develop and change as the album has progressed. My own personal fav with its very gentle Folk/Psych backwards guitar ending is Penny Lies. Copies of Good Men get Lost at Sea can be purchased from here.

Douglas E Powell & the Rising Spirit St Anne's Chapel

If your in North Devon around the 30th of May, then you really should pop along to St Anne's Chapel Barnstable to see Douglas E Powell & the Rising Spirit do their thing.

Alt-folk, alt-country, acoustica and Anglo Americana; Douglas E Powell is both a lyricist and poetic singer-songwriter. His songs are wistful, melancholy and fragile. Layering wistful stories over classic English folk blended with alt-country, he is well known in the south west live music and gig scene. Musical influences derive from a mixture of American country music, blues and folk music.
