In 2005 a film was made of the Green Man Festival in Wales. It has been unreleased and unseen for nearly 20 years and features performances by Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy, Alasdair Roberts and Joanna Newsom, among others.

Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy shares the video/single “Keeping Secrets Will Destroy You”, the title track of his latest album that doesn’t appear on the album…instead it stands marvellously on its own. Watch the accompanying video directed by Adam Laity.

Directed by Jacob Forman, watch the video for Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy’s “Willow, Pine and Oak” – “When first proposing the video to me, Will posed it as a challenge of sorts— to stray from my typical home of the handheld camera and attempt to capture that same sort of intimacy with a tripod. To ‘lock it down,’ in his words…”

While ‘Keeping Secrets Will Destroy You’ is recognisably a Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy album, it is also a slight departure. These songs have a life-affirming quality, a willingness to exist in the present, and as a result, this is one of Will Oldham’s most rewarding albums.

Taken from his forthcoming new album ‘Keeping Secrets Will Destroy You’, Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy shares his new single ‘Crazy Blue Bells’, for which Director Ray Tintori presents a dazzling visual accompaniment.

Bonnie “Prince” Billy announces his new album ‘Keeping Secrets Will Destroy You’ and shares lead single & video ‘Bananas’ – Bonny’s call-n-response with Dane Waters passes the love around until flowers bloom forth from the desert…

On 21st April, Shorty’s Ark, the debut picture book from Will Oldham and illustrator Lori Damiano will be published via Drag City. The book is based on the song by Will Oldham and Matt Sweeney – watch them performing the song live.

Bonnie “Prince” Billy has shared a gorgeous revitalized “Outsider” anthem, a cover version from one of the giants of the punk era, featuring a number of special guests including the dearly missed D.C. Berman.

Bill Callahan & Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy announce Blind Date Party featuring their series of covers with the likes of Alasdair Roberts, Meg Baird, Matt Sweeney, George Xylouris, Six Organs of Admittance, Sir Richard Bishop and more.

The much loved Joan Shelley and Nathan Salsburg have teamed up with Matt Sweeney and Bonny ‘Prince’ Billy to present the “Watch What Happens” b/w “Stay On My Shore” digital single.

Taken from their Superwolves album, Matt Sweeney & Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy share their video for ‘Resist the Urge’ made by legendary skateboarder Kevin “Spanky” Long and photographer/skateboarder Atiba Jefferson.

Last year Dylan sang, “I contain multitudes” quoting Whitman, a sentiment this sophomore tour de force boldly epitomizes. Equal parts glamorous and grotesque, Matt Sweeney & Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy’s Superwolves is a sprawling, bewildering frenzy of ideas and emotions, leaving the listener with plenty to unpick.
