We already shared the first of Bill Callahan’s new music – but there’s more! ‘Lonely City’ is the second song from the forthcoming ‘My Days of 58’ album, and is apparently a tribute to the Big Apple, New York city.

He says: “Lonely City is a song I’ve been meaning to write for decades. It has been inside me that long. I tend to focus my writing on humans and the spirit within. So writing about concrete and steel felt like a no go. Like I’m going to write a song about a car next? But of course cities are made by humans so they are human, too. You have a relationship with them, like friends. You get mad at them when you get a parking ticket, you love them when they offer you a nice meal. It’s a song acknowledging all this.”

Press play.
