Bonnie “Prince” Billy – “Leave Me Alone With These Blues” (Hank Williams Cover)
Bonnie “Prince” Billy is one of the closest things we’ve got to a true modern folk singer-songwriter, and it’s an absolute joy when he takes on traditional and classic folk songs like he does in this new live session for Fogged Clarity. He plays Hanks Williams’ “Leave Me Alone With These Blues,” which Will Oldham says is one of the first songs he ever learned, and two traditional folk songs “Will You Miss Me” and “It’s A Sin To Lie.” It’s a beautiful performance, and you can listen to it below.
