Jeremy Ivey, echtgenoot en bandlid van Margo Price’s band, gaat zijn eigen muzikale weg met de release op 13 september van het debuutalbum “The Dream And The Dreamer”. Op het project, dat is opgenomen in een thuisstudio en geproduceerd door Margo Price staan 9 songs waaronder de single “Diamonds Back To Coal”.
“I wrote ‘Diamonds Back To Coal’ during a very frustrating week in America,” Ivey said. “It was the week that the Vegas shootings and the alt-right march happened. The slogan ‘Make America Great Again’ is an influence on the chorus. [Because] if anything, we’re making the environment worse. When we came and infiltrated the Native Americans’ way of living, we started reversing the beauty that this land had. It has to do with modern man being a trespasser.”
