In the album, “Here Without You – The Songs of Gene Clark”, by Skydiggers, one of Canada’s most treasured bands interprets the work of one of the world’s best loved songwriters. The album is an eight song collection which covers, and in some cases radically reinvents, such timeless Gene Clark compositions as The Byrds’ classics “Eight Miles High” and “Feel A Whole Lot Better” in the Juno Award winning Skydiggers’ equally timeless folk pop style. Delivered in a stark, haunting manner, the intimate album was recorded by Cowboy Junkies’ Michael Timmins, who serves as producer.
