Jordie Lane

Lovers Ride

---

With his unique finger-style guitar, blues harmonica, and a commanding voice that jumps from a Jimmie Rodgers yodel to a Springsteen-like roar, Jordie Lane is fast creating a rumble amongst not only Australia’s music fans but is gaining much respect from it’s songwriters too.

In the past year, the release of his EP ‘Lovers Ride’ receiving extensive local airplay, a crazy 40 show East Coast tour, recent standout performances with a new band at Port Fairy Folk Festival, and supports for major touring acts have all helped cement his place in a new breed of artists who once again believe primarily, in the power of a good song.

Jordie’s love for American folk, blues and country music such as Dylan, Townes Van Zandt, Hank Williams and Gillian Welch are surely evident in his sound, but he’s not trying to re-hash anything. He’s telling his stories, through his experiences. And he does so with a remarkable sense of clarity and awareness considering he is only 22 years old.

Since his 2005 E.P. ill communication which was recorded with Aria Award winning producer David Bridie (Not Drowning, Waving/My Friend the Chocolate Cake), Jordie released a 7 track E.P, ‘Lovers Ride’. It was recorded on a budget of a measly $132.50 AUS in his back shed with a big list of local guests who all gave there time freely including fellow Melbourne born folk singer/songwriters Liz Stringer, and Simon Bruce.
