How Many More Times is the title of the new Esther Rose covers album. Set for release July 16, 2021, via Father/Daughter Records.

Rose was previously in town on September 13, 2019, with Nick Lowe and Los Straightjackets.

Anyway, the idea behind this record is that each song was originally written by Rose, but re-interpreted by six different musicians, including Shamir and Stef Chura.

We got to quickly preview the EP, and we really like the “Songs Remain” remixed by Field Supervisor. There’s something really cool about country music with electronic beats.

If you already own Esther Rose’s How Many Times album, this cover lover EP is the perfect companion record.

Track listing

1. Shamir - Songs Remain
2. Twain - How Many Times
3. Anjimile - Coyote Creek
4. Tasha - Are You Out There
5. Stef Chura - Good Time
6. Field Supervisor - Songs Remain (Remix)
