Cowboy Junkies

Barn Diaries Songbook

Cowboy Junkies are a Canadian alternative country/blues/folk rock band. The group was formed in Toronto in 1985 by Margo Timmins (vocalist), Michael Timmins (songwriter, guitarist), Peter Timmins (drummer) and Alan Anton (bassist).

Scope

Throughout the Spring of 2021 Margo and Michael got together in a converted barn located in Eugenia Falls. During the day, Michael would write, and in the evening, Margo would drop by and sing. This was the initial phase of developing the songs that would eventually make up the album Such Ferocious Beauty. Michael then came to me with a challenge. He had notebooks he used to write the songs from those sessions and unreleased recordings. He wanted to recreate the notebook and combine it with a CD for release.

Staying local we used a print shop in Owen Sound. We worked with the printer directly and were able to match the paper and cover to give the Cowboy Junkies fans an authentic momento.
