about

Brand new! - Jed's second collection of songs recorded at home during autumn of 2020.
Proceeds from the sale of this album will help the Paddy Bort Fund for Musicians in Need, which is administered by the folks at Edinburgh Folk Club, and is especially important under the current situation, when so many have lost their entire livelihood.
Critics and fans have long asked for a (mostly!) acoustic, as-live recording by Jed Grimes - well, here's the second one in a year!
Some fan favourites, some brand new songs: Jed's usual eclectic mix of NE English, Irish and American sources, and that same blend of musical flavours permeate every track.
Jed's taken the chance to pay tribute to some of his favourite songwriters this time: alongside traditional fare such as The Night Visiting Song, you'll find compositions by Bob Dylan, Sidney Carter, John Prine, Lowell George, Elmore James and Brownie McGhee.
There's instrumental help here and there too: adding wonderful fiddle and mandolin to a couple of tracks, we have the Connecticut Yankee In King Geordie's Court, Niles Krieger.
This album was recorded 'as live', all first takes, into a single microphone: no overdubs, nothing 'improved', and bags of performance energy!
It's the closest thing to experiencing Jed Grimes live in concert.
