"Distributed by the University of Nebraska Press for Whale and Star
Press" For the Cowboy Junkies it all begins with a song: an
acoustic guitar and a voice. But each song comes to each album with
its own history, along its own strange path. Some are born and
realized in a matter of minutes; others take years to finally find
a place. Some pop out as perfect little gems; others mutate and
transform themselves, stealing and pillaging from the unformed. XX
celebrates the twentieth anniversary of the Cowboy Junkies, one of
the most distinctive and influential rock bands in recent years.
Starting with the seminal album "The Trinity Session," the Canadian
band's signature sound, based on traditional blues and post-punk
rock, has garnered much critical acclaim and an uncommonly devoted
international following. The Cowboy Junkies are guitarist and
lyricist Michael Timmins, bassist Alan Anton, and Timmins's
siblings Margo (lead vocals) and Peter (drums). This book, the
first to focus on the Cowboy Junkies, offers an intimate look at
the band through their own photographs and the poetic lyrics of
Michael Timmins, who chose the selections. Each lyric is
accompanied by a resonant illustration created by renowned artist
Enrique Martinez Celaya, who is a friend and fan of the band.
