Elles Bailey - When I Go Away

LCM Song Of The Day: ‘When I Go Away’ - Elles Bailey

We have loved this excellent Levon Helm cover from Elles since the first time we heard it performed live. It’s a real earworm and it’s the song that was the inspiration for Elle’s wonderful new companion album ‘Blacktop Companion’ released on November 8th. Elles is currently on tour, please catch her and the band if you can.

‘Blacktop Companion’ is a special 9-track companion disc for Elles’s successful second album ‘Road I Call Home’. It’s available for pre-order on her website and features 3 fully-produced, previously-unheard tracks from Elles’’ Road I Call Home’ recording sessions in Nashville; 3 live-in-the-studio alt band versions of songs from ‘Road I Call Home’; acoustic versions of ‘Miss Me When I’m Gone’ and ‘Medicine Man’ and today’s featured track a cover of Levon Helm’s ‘When I Go Away’.

“For me,” Elles reflects, “Blacktop Companion marks the continuation of this epic Road I Call Home adventure that I have travelled for the last year or so and it tells a lot more of the story! It also highlights my incredible live band who have toured this record with me, and I am so grateful for their talents, humour and for just being wonderful human beings!’
