From writing songs to Tom Petty ("Song for Tom Petty") to covering Randy Newman’s “Blue Shadows on the Trail”, The Satin Cowboy has outdone himself once again with his new sorrowful country ballad, “I’m No Good at Being Sad”.  The song’s old country guitar rhythm and plaintive lyrics are a throwback to traditional sing-along country music, while the crisp production and fiddle bring the song into the contemporary Americana realm.

Los Angeles’s Americana band, The Satin Cowboy & The Seven Deadly Sins, has released their first cover song, Randy Newman’s “Blue Shadows on the Trail” off their third full-length album, Amigos; set to release this summer. Premiering on Americana Highways, the single “Blue Shadows on the Trail” is a tribute to the Randy Newman’s classic cowboy song that originally appeared in the 1986 hit film, The Three Amigos.
