With his new album Dixie Blur due for release 6th March via Bella Union in the UK/Europe (BMG in North America), Jonathan Wilson has released new album single ‘Oh Girl’.
Of the track Wilson says: “I wanted to write a ballad, a ballad that looked back fondly and favourably of the gift of time spent in love with someone, sharing so much, that you could only possibly put a small amount in a song… I wanted the melodies to be languid and beautiful, the chords to be as beautiful as falling in love on the streets of New York, in a simpler time….which is exactly what the tune is about… Jim Hoke’s Harmonica solo seals the deal.”
Wilson has announced a 10–date full band European tour in late March / early April which includes a headline performance at London’s new Lafayette venue. See dates below.
