As a group, CHARAS was interested in physically altering the housing conditions in their immediate neighborhood, the Lower East Side.

His biggest hit is actually a country song: 1970’s “Don’t Take Her (She’s All I Got).” Written with his best friend Gary U.S. Bonds, the track is country in that woeful, underdog-baring-their-soul sort of way that for some reason only country songs really ever allow themselves to be.

Nashville guitar firebrand Jim Oblon combusts his way through lead duties, while frequent collaborator Moogstar and special guests Justin Vernon (Bon Iver), John Prine, Jenny Lewis, Channy Leaneagh and Chris Beirden of Poliça, and Sam Amidon join the action throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA band of 14 players, including Vernon, Lee, Beirden, and Moogstar, among others, provides the background for Swamp’s devastating new take on “Don’t Take Her (She’s All I Got).” Lead single “Sleeping Without You Is A Dragg” is one of Swamp’s most heartfelt songs to date and features Vernon on piano as well as backing vocals by Lewis and Leaneagh. He duets with country-folk legend Prine on two songs (“It’s the first time I seen John since the sixties!” laughs Swamp): the indelible, psychedelic ballad “Memories” and the reflective “Please Let Me Go Round Again.” Originally written and demoed in his forties, “Please Let Me Go Round Again” is a plea for one more chance at life, sung with acute emotional connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThese are narratives about love, of missing the one you love, of compassion, family and friends, and even the kind of love that transcends death. “I was looking for a new way for Swamp Dogg to go,” he explains. “Apart from me singing and writing most of the songs, I didn’t participate—in other words, I told ‘em, ‘Don’t ask me, I wanna see what happens without my influence.’ It was hard for me to do, ego-wise.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eSorry You Couldn’t Make It\u003c\/em\u003e sees Swamp come full circle, and closes what has felt to him like unfinished business. “They didn’t have any blacks in country until Charlie Pride came along,” he says. “But in time, all things change and that’s what has happened to country music.” Surveying today’s Nashville reality, Swamp sees opportunity: artists as divergent as Darius Rucker and Lil Nas X are converging in a genre that he once worried might never give him his shot. “I’m anxious because it’s like I’ve taken all my money and put it on one horse,” he says. “But I believe in this horse.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSorry You Couldn’t Make It\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ewas made in collaboration with Joyful Noise Records.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pioneer Works Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31260660629562,"sku":"RECORD-SWAMP","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0141\/3690\/1690\/products\/JNR327-SYCMI-Cover-Art-FINAL.jpg?v=1687979956"},{"product_id":"software-for-artists-book","title":"Software for Artists Book: Building Better Realities","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow can we co-opt digital tools to build a more beautiful future?
