OLD MAN LUEDECKE | MY HANDS ARE ON FIRE AND OTHER LOVE SONGS
My Hands are on Fire and Other Love Songs is the follow-up to Chris “Old Man” Luedecke’s Juno Award-winning album Proof of Love. Recorded live in Vancouver, the new album showcases Luedecke’s distinctive banjo, acoustic guitar and vocals which are backed by Steve Dawson on various instruments; Tim O’Brien (Steve Earle) on fiddle, mandolin and backing vocals; Keith Lowe (Bill Frisell) on bass; and John Raham (Be Good Tanyas, Po’ Girl) on drums. While rooted in folk, bluegrass and Appalachian mountain music, Luedecke’s music features contemporary lyrics and melodies that put a new spin on traditional sounds. – Written by JFelton

OLD MAN LUEDECKE | PROOF OF LOVE
Canadian Chris “Old Man” Luedecke’s Proof of Love is the Juno Award winning follow-up to the widely acclaimed Hinterland. Recorded live in the studio with backing band John Reischman (mandolin), Mark Beaty (bass), Adrian Dolan (fiddle), Steve Dawson (guitar, Glockenspiel, organ), Chris Gestrin (organ, accordion, Wurlitzer), John Raham (drums), Alice Dawson, Rose Cousins, and The Sojourners (back-up vocals). The result is a unique interplay between traditional finger picked banjo rhythms with contemporary lyrics and melodies evoking both tenderness and sophistication. Proof of Love is a fresh take on traditional folk, country and Americana music.
