UK and Ireland shows for Corb Lund coming up as main support for The Dead South
Fri 07 Mar 2025A rural Albertan hailing from the foothills of the Rocky Mountains with a long family lineage of ranchers and rodeo people, Corb Lund is about as authentic as they come, and equally as hard to define.
The western Canadian singer-songwriter is an elusive artist—onstage, offstage, and in the studio—seamlessly weaving between the outlaw country, Western, and indie-folk realms withan honest curiosity and rowdy devotion to each. He was raised with the tried and true DIY sentiment of “if you want something done, you gotta do it yourself” launching his career recording in his basement, printing his own shirts, booking his own tours, being his own manager and publicist... whatever it took to get it done.
He toured for years with the indie-metal band the smalls, and later turned his sights to writing Western songs, creating a unique and quirky hybrid writing style along the way. He has received multiple domestic and international award nominations and wins. In 2022, Lund won his 14th career Canadian Country Music Award and made his debut at the historic Grand Ole Opry.
Returning with his first new album of original material since the critically acclaimed “Agricultural Tragic”, Corb Lund brings us “El Viejo”. Straight from the opener this album feels like it actually is musician friends sat around having a great time. Recorded completely at home in Lethbridge, Alberta in his living room with the band “The Hurtin’ Albertans”, Lund has put together a quality collection of songs.
