Special WED LIVE MUSIC NIGHT: Joe Nolan plays the Pine Box Stage at Grist & Mash Brewery Wednesday Sept 10th 7-9pm.We are excited to host Songwriter - Poet - Raconteur --Joe Nolan making a special mid-week stop in Kimberley on his Western Canada tour. joenolanmusic.com
Hailed by The Globe and Mail as "an Americana wunderkind to watch out for," Joe Nolan is proving that praise well-deserved with his upcoming album, produced by Grammy Award-winner Tyler Chester.
Luv in the New World was recorded live off the floor in Los Angeles with an all-star lineup, including Jay Bellerose on drums (Robert Plant & Alison Krauss, Willie Nelson) and Sebastian Steinberg on bass (Phoebe Bridgers, Lucinda Williams). Set for release in 2025, get ready—Joe Nolan is about to become a name everyone’s talking about.
A virtuoso guitarist, elusive poet, and musical chameleon, Nolan was raised in the rural community of Sturgeon County, Alberta. Caught between two small northern towns, he found his place in this world at an early age, growing up alongside the North Saskatchewan River. Nolan has always lived on the outskirts and can be a hard one to pin down. Breaking genres and defying labels, he defines his sound as "These are my caravan diaries," claiming to go "wherever the muse takes me." He has garnered many accolades upon his shelf, including last year’s Canadian Folk Music Award nod for his 2023 release Lost Verses. However, he’d rather let those awards collect dust than bask in the limelight.
Known for his scrappy solo shows and arresting stage presence, Nolan’s songs are sometimes fragile and fractured, yet winningly wistful. In the next moment, he'll throw on his weathered newsboy cap and crank out a grit-soaked howl, paying homage to the Delta Blues. For a solo act, Nolan is a mountain, and audiences are his lifeblood.
He continues to dazzle fans across North America and Europe, performing around 150 shows a year. Wherever he goes, you’ll likely find him accompanied by his 2003 Dodge Caravan, named Rocco, and his trusty parlor guitar—small in size but mighty in sound.
His lyrics draw a harrow over the human condition, revealing secrets that only those daring enough to cross into uncharted territory could uncover. Nolan wears the highway on his sleeve, and if you look just far enough, you might catch a glimpse of him, barrelling down the one, in big sky country.
The Prince of Sturgeon County is on his way!
