Anne McCue
with new single
“Fall Through The Cracks”
Australian-expat/East Nashville resident Anne McCue has collaborated with producer Josh Grange on her first original single for a while.
“I ran into Josh at The Family Wash [in Nashville] last year.
The last time I had seen him he was playing pedal steel and keys with k.d. lang at The Ryman.
I first met him back in the Zeroes when he was playing bass with Randy Weeks. Those were the days when the Americana scene in L.A. was really cookin’.
I also remember seeing him playing maracas with Dwight Yoakam at The Wiltern Theatre. He’s kind of a ‘Zelig’ of Americana music, I guess.”
On some rare down time, the singer/songwriter/producer/radio host McCue visited Grange’s Resistor studio near Music Row, Nashville.
“I played Josh a song I had written with David Olney and John Hadley.
He suggested I put in a B flat chord and we were off and running.
He became co-writer, producer and co-conspirator in a matter of minutes,” says McCue.
Anne McCue has recently been producing other artists including Scott Miller (The V-Roys), Emma Swift and Ellen Starski. You can read our review of that 2017 Scott Miller album Ladies Auxiliary HERE.
She also filled the fourth band member guitarist slot on Robyn Hitchcock’s eponymous album (Yep Roc 2017) and has recently been touring as lead guitarist with Miller (playing as recently as last week’s Bristol Rhythm and Roots Reunion – read our take on that event HERE).
“It’s nice to get back to my own thing every now and then,” says McCue, “although I love working with other people on their music.”
McCue also co-wrote the title track of David Olney’s latest album – This Side Or The Other.
The new single “Fall Through The Cracks” produced by Josh Grange is out now via Flying Machine Records.
“Cities and faces
We won’t see again
We’ll go anywhere
The restless wind blows
Live in the places
Nobody goes
We’ll be the ones nobody knows…”
