THIS SIDE OR THE OTHER was written by David Olney, Annie McCue & John Hadley and is the title track from David Olney’s new full-length album release on Black Hen Music (available Aug. 24, 2018). David shares this story behind the song: “I got the idea from the film, ‘ he Town'. The movie is about Boston gangsters. A father in prison says this to his son. What a beautiful thing for a hard man to say. I took the idea to Anne McCue and John Hadley and we wrote this song. Anne sings on this one, too.”
The video was filmed in on both sides of the Cumberland River Nashville, TN and directed by Anana Kaye and Irakli Gabriel - two artists originally immigrating from the Republic of Georgia (Eastern Europe), now living in Music City, by way of New York City.
While “This Side or The Other” is not a concept album, there are some recurring themes. The frequent reference to walls in these songs - walls being built and tumbling down - will suggest that while Olney has encountered more than his own share of walls, he is still trying his best to understand them.
The other musicians on “This Side or The Other” are Country Music Hall of Fame inductee Charlie McCoy, The McCrary Sisters, Fats Kaplin, Anne McCue and Olney’s regular band: Daniel Seymour on bass, Ward Stout on fiddle and Justin Amaral on drums.
After more than 30 years in music, DAVID OLNEY has had as many incarnations as you can imagine. His resume has expanded to include acting, poetry and a popular weekly streamcast called YOU NEVER KNOW. All of this adds to Olney’s strength as a songwriter’s songwriter (Emmylou Harris, Del McCoury, Linda Ronstadt, Steve Young, Tim O’Brien and others), and one of Nashville’s founding fathers of Americana music.
