A New Dog Trumpet Video Has Arrived ‘No More Travelling’

In the new Dog Trumpet ‘No More Travelling’ Peter O’Doherty does all the travelling for us.

The video was shot by Susan O’Doherty and includes outback footage courtesy of Dominique Pile and Sally Wilson.

“’No More Travelling’ is definitely a Covid song,” Peter O’Doherty tells Noise11.com. “It was written in the first or second wave of Covid lockdowns. I remember when Covid started I thought ‘oh well, they’ll lock down for a couple of weeks and we’ll get the painful part out of the way’. Its interesting. No-one did foresee what was coming. Two weeks turned into two and a half years. We are still dealing with it now almost three years later. There is a song about no more travelling, no more festivals, no more usual affairs, people getting out on the streets and going to work.

“As a musician and a visual artist, we spend a lot of time at home anyway. In some ways it was the silver lining for us. We got to do that without having any other distractions which resulted in us making this album and being able to concentrate on this and not do too many other things.

‘No More Travelling talks about my neighbour who just passed away. That’s a bit of artistic licence but it definitely touched a lot of people we know who did pass over that time. I am not sure if we are really out of the Covid experience. It might be something we live with forever. There might be more songs along the same track”.

Now in their late sixties and still touring world-wide, featuring the original line up of Dave Vanian, Captain Sensible, Rat Scabies and Paul Gray, they are the ones having the last laugh and have left their old rivals for dead, in certain respects, quite literally!
