Released on February 21st, the Deluxe Edition of Sandi Thom’s ‘MERCHANT AND THIEVES’ boasts two brand new, previously unreleased studio recordings of Sandi’s breathtaking rendition of the timeless folk classic House of the Rising Sun and Warren Haynes heartbreaking classic If Heartaches Were Nickels.
Sandi’s version of House of the Rising Sun was recently the No.1 digital download single on iTunes’ UK blues chart for several weeks.
The deluxe edition of Merchant and Thieves also features the previously unreleased promotional video for the third single, Gold Dust, taken from the Merchants and Thieves album.
The video was shot and directed by an Irish director, Laura McGann, during the summer of 2010 in Liverpool on various locations including the club Alma de Cuba and Formby beach where Sandi frequented to write songs for the Merchants and Thieves album.
The video sees Sandi experience different emotions including regret, anger, hurt, and revenge, to the point where Sandi eventually drowns her sorrows in alcohol, breaks down and cries.
“Gold Dust is about the demise of a past relationship of mine,” reflects Sandi. “All of the places where we filmed the video were old haunts of mine and my ex’s.”
