New Mexico My sweet Maria where are you now Does your hair still fall down your pretty face I had to leave I just couldn’t stay To see somebody else take my place Love’s been no better than you were to me Love is a light that’s still out of my reach It’s hard to let go of New Mexico I’d love to go back to New Mexico And see the sunflowers bloom once again Just you and I beneath the sky That’s as blue as your eyes in the rain. I long to come back and see you again Feel your beating heart next to mine But I’ll never go to New Mexico

about

The first in a series of 3 EPs to whet the appetite for Dean's upcoming album Sinner's Shrine, recorded with desert noir icons, Calexico.

Recorded partly at WaveLab Studios, Tucson, Arizona, and partly long distance in lockdown, with musicians from the Calexico family.
Songs and stories of love and lust, sinners and saints, the displaced, the wanderers and the border ghosts.

"Terrific" - "Whspering" Bob Harris (BBC 2)
"A grand canyon of a release... album of the year contender" - Rocking Magpie
"If this doesn't ping your radar, there's no justice!" FATEA
"Absolute killer" - Folk Radio UK (of New Mexico)
"mouthwatering" - Lonesome Highway
"compelling..." - Americana UK
"wonderfully rich music, joining two continents" - Paul Sexton (BBC)
