This is the first iteration of 'Promised Land' which we're in the process of recording for our first EP. Yet to feature T-Dubya on the Banjo or Curly-Sue on the ole double bass. This version created with the help of Jamie Stacey, who recorded, mixed and mastered in record time, as well as laying down bass and slide guitar. 
Written by Megan Pennyfeather and featuring her on vox and acoustic, Lurkin' J Durkin on the drums.
This song speaks to the hypocrisy of religious types who pay lip service to love and acceptance, but leave people in need turned away from our shores, made to be villains and left to rot on Manus Island and other 'detention centres' (jails).

Promised Land

Cotton Pony is Tassie’s freshest all original alt-country band. From the swamplands of Invermay, CP leader Megan Q Pennyfeather dons her boots and lays out her soul in a soundscape of woe and heartbreak. But fret not, it ain’t all doom and gloom! There’s plenty of foot stompin’ to be had!

Accompanied by Lurkin’ J. Durkin (Joseph Durkin) on drums, T-Dubya (Thomas Willis) on banjo and harmonica and Curly Sue (Susannah Coleman-Brown) on Bess (her black upright bass), Megan leads her band of ponies with great heart and humour.

When the Pones let loose, their three part harmonies, twangin’ rhythms, and solid melodic writing will make you want to throw your arms around someone and get all giddy.

Giddy up!
