Artist Profile

oldseed (CAN)

Quite frankly, one of the best songwriters this country has ever produced...music which a world, sick of it’s own superficiality, longs for.

Sometimes aggressively raw, sometimes tenderly fragile, words spilling out in a fevered stream of consciousness, this conjures up everything that is genuinely invigorating in decent post punk, rootsy alt-whatever you wanna call it.

Oldseed has flourished quietly, but remarkably. He’s captured whatever it is that makes great folk music so compelling.

I’m serious. Holy crap, is this album good. Every line is so good it makes me crazy not to have written it.

you’ve got nothing but light, let it shine, with it’s hick harmonies, lazy harmonica and eerie banjo plucking, is one of the most god-beautiful songs of the year.
