Cowboy Junkies have announced that they recruited Ryan Adams and Natalie Merchant as guest vocalists and instrumentalists on the 20th anniversary edition of their 1988 album ‘The Trinity Session’.
The band plan to release the ‘Trinity Revisited’ DVD/CD collection on February 26, 2008 in the US.
The band recruited Adams and Merchant as well as Vic Chestnutt and Jeff Bird to return to Toronto’s Church of the Holy Trinity where the album was originally recorded.
The guests provided vocals as well as instrumental contributions on reinterpretations of several songs.
"The idea was to cobble together a loose band sound with just a few hours of rehearsal, and a one day recording schedule much in the same way we created the original recording," frontman Timmins said in a statement. "We came, we played, and the church, once again, did the rest."
