Amen Dunes Releases Lilac In Hand Video

(Prog) Amen Dunes, also known as New York musician Damon McMahon, has released a video for his track Lilac In Hand. It's taken from his third album Love, set for launch on May 12 via Sacred Bones, and described as "his most substantial record to date."

The label has this to say about the project: "Amen Dunes has always been rooted in traditional song and sound, but Love is his first work in which this so clearly shines through.

"The guiding influence of Astral Weeks, Sam Cooke, Tim Hardin, Marvin Gaye, Hector Lavoe, and the cosmic non-verbal mediations of Leon Thomas, all kept vigil over the songwriting. The spirit of late 60s and early 70s spiritual jazz - Pharaoh Sanders, Alice Coltrane - channeled the sound.

"These are elemental songs about time, love and memory, as much about the listener as they are about the writer: pure, open and beautiful."
