Having released one of our favourite Irish albums of 2016 in Veil, Dublin’s J. Cowhie joined many artists around the world in contributing to the ACLU fundraiser on Bandcamp last Friday via his single ‘New Life’. With 100% of the proceeds for the pay-what-you-like single going to the Union (who are working to fully oppose the Executive Order barring immigrants and refugees from seven Middle Eastern countries from entering the United States) it finds Cowhie – who formerly made music as GOODTIME/Goodtime John – in typically ruminative, Papa M-esue form, relaying a tale of uncertain days and sin.
