On March 30th (Canada) and March 16 (America), Old Man Luedecke will release the follow up to his Juno Award-winning album “Proof Of Love”.

The album also features bluegrass legend Tim O’Brien on every song and once again pairs Old Man Luedecke with award-winning producer Steve Dawson, who has produced all 3 of his releases so far.

That’s right, Proof of Love won the Juno for best Roots Traditional solo album of the year. The ladies at the Chester post office are pretty excited to get that package coming through the office. me too.

I’m laying a little low right now trying to write songs for a new album that I’ll record in the fall to be released sometime next year.

Watch for a bicycle tour of Nova Scotia in the fall too.

Got the dates up for the wonderful tour I’m doing next month with Kim Barlow and Christine fellows. We’re arranging our songs together for a really nice night, strings, pianos, banjos etc. Also posted some UK dates, and stay tuned for Australian/Tasmanian dates next winter.

Oh, and thanks to Music Nova Scotia for the wonderful five nods for awards for Proof of Love!

And I’m really starting to get excited for my show with Rose Cousins and Symphony Nova Scotia February 20th!

Thanks to everyone who has so encouraged me over the last few months!

hey I’m coming to Alberta after all this summer — next week! coming to South country fair and a show in canmore and calgary. Hope to see you. Thanks so to all you who’ve been showing such love and support for my music lately–

oh and I had my first ever Sauna (sawoona) bath on the weekend at Kate Maki’s during the Northern Lights fest in Sudbury. Had a really magical time there wobbling towards the lake with Kate and Nathan Lawr and the Great Lake Swimmers. Thanks Kate and Nate!

Hello

Wow thanks for the great shows in Ontario and Quebec everyone who came. Thanks also to Lake of Stew from Montreal for their wonderful album. I can’t let it go! I sing and sing and sing along, it may be partly the spring. I recommend going to see them when they’re out here in Nova Scotia in July. Also my CD has been number one on Earshot Folk Roots Charts for 7 weeks.

There’s a cool video on the National Post website,

Enjoy yourselves and sleep in a tent at least once this summer.
