The Dead Leaves
House That Burnt Down
House That Burnt Down from Matt Joe Gow is the sound of the Dunedin born singer/songwriter exploring some of his earliest musical influences - the blues. The song features and was recorded by Bill Chambers who adds his stamp to this raw acoustic number remniscent of John Lee Hooker.
Recorded live off the floor everything is laid bare foot tapping, strings rattling, the floor creaking, it serves to capture the very essence of the blues, the performance. Lyrically it is a dark journey that can be seen either as a metaphor for a relationship 'gone bad' or even a literal account of a man who has lost it all and looks to find solace in song.
