We recently reviewed Easy Money, the latest offering from Old Man Luedecke which finds him dreaming about his ship coming in, still a parent but now grappling with the newness of middle age, dad jokes, love for an abiding partner, the death of a parent, along with some calypso-feeling local Nova Scotia history thrown in for good measure.
“A relaxed and effortlessly listenable take on troubled times and personal tugs and turmoils, this is cash you definitely want in hand.” Read our full review.
Anyone who has managed to see this folk troubadour live will know it’s quite an experience. Great tunes and humourous banter are not something this Banjo-toting Nova Scotian are short of. Even if you’re new to his music, by the end of the first half you can bet you’ll be singing along with the rest of them to those unforgettable choruses. So now is the time to treat yourself and make sure you catch him at one of the gigs and many UK & European festival appearances he is making this summer including Cambridge Folk Festival, Underneath the Stars, Purbeck Valley Folk Festival, Wickham, Towersey, Cecil Sharp House as well as the mighty Festival Interceltique de Lorient and Tonder.
