Greg Green's (Ex-MR PLOW) BURNT SHERPA new single "Difficult Gift" is out now! The song is taken from his upcoming album Last or Later which will be released on May 17, 2024.
Greg comments: "The death of Mark Lanegan initially inspired Difficult Gift. Very few celebrity deaths have had much of an effect on me, but when he passed, it hit me harder than I expected. The title comes from the idea that our work as artists can be a "difficult gift" for those we leave behind."
Last or Later consists of six songs designed to take the listener on a journey from the joy of a ride on the beach to the sadness of hearing the works of artists after they've passed on from this world. Heavily influenced by 90s grunge, SOUNDGARDEN and Siamese Dream era SMASHING PUMPKINS, BURNT SHERPA also draws from influences such as JEFF BUCKLEY as well as classic rock bands like LED ZEPPELIN and PINK FLOYD. A touch of neo-soul influence can also be found amongst the tracklist.

About BURNT SHERPA:
Based in Houston, Texas, BURNT SHERPA is the project of Greg Green, a founding member and former bass player of the stoner rock outfit MR. PLOW. After the band released their album, Maintain Radio Silence on Ripple Music, in 2018, Greg found that he couldn't keep up with the demands of the band and reluctantly bowed out. BURNT SHERPA began as a way for Greg to finish some demo ideas from the PLOW years but soon developed into a full-blown project. He enlisted the help of producer Dean Dichoso (CANDLEBOX), and the EP Last or Later was born.
