JOE’s New Song of the Day #323: Gordon Barry – ‘The Best Way to Kill A Monster’

Eric Lalor

A tune mixed by legendary producer Steve Fisk.

Gordon Barry is a singer-songwriter from Wexford. While touring in New York he met the renowned artist Steve Earle who invited him back to the US under a scholarship role at his school for songwriters in the Appalachian Mountains.

How amazingly cool is that?

Having played alongside acts such as Earle, The Blind Boys of Alabama, Marah, Eddi Reader and many more, he went on to release his debut album in August 2016.

The first single from that album is the track of the same name, ‘The Best Way to Kill A Monster’, which is available now on iTunes.
