Dowd's notable works include *Temporary Shelter*, *The Pawnbroker's Wife*, *Cemetery Shoes*, and *Wake Up The Snakes*.
Formed in Leeds, England in 1976, the Mekons are a genre-defying band known for their political lyrics and eclectic style, spanning punk, country, and folk. Their music includes "Never Been in a Riot" and "Memphis, Egypt."
