PK DWYER

PK Dwyer's 2020 country tinged folk and blues release Music To Dance To is a collection of songs that lift and whirl the listener like a nostalgic amusement park ride.  Each of the 11 tunes is a musical gem waiting to be unearthed.  Six of the songs [Music To Dance To - Wish I Knew - Deep Inside The Evergreen State - The Buskin' Life - Buskers Lament and The Gods Are Watching Over Us] are infused with the magic and twinkle of the autoharp.  Pledge Drive - The Welfare Song and Trouble feature the bravado of PK's slide guitar playing and I Married Well is a classic PK Dwyer tune with his raucous guitar and signature harmonica.  Higher Wage is done a cappella and is the crown jewel of this stellar album.

Team Dwyer and the King Pin Head Music crew are very pleased and proud of our latest musical and artistic effort.  We recommend Music To Dance To - Pledge Drive - Deep Inside The Evergreen State and Higher Wage as the albums must listen to tracks.
