MOON CALLER new music from PENNY DAVIES & ROGER ILOTT
For over 30 years PENNY DAVIES & ROGER ILOTT’s performances of songs such as Hey Rain!, Where the Cane Fires Burn, Beside a Railway Line, Ridin’ on the Fruit Train, The Monkeys Sing Soprano and When the Cooper’s Coming Down have been taken to Australia’s heart and are part of the Australian psyche.
MOON CALLER is their latest release and features son Jordy on drums along with old bandmate Jed Hudson on bass – creating a strong rhythmic feel on every track. The album features songs about people, climate, greed, the price of war, human achievement and human frailty, the lessons of history, bushrangers, growing up and growing older.
