Old Man Luedecke is the recording name of two-time JUNO award winning and Polaris prize nominated singer songwriter Chris Luedecke. A multiple East Coast Music Award winner known for his high energy banjo driven stompers, touching guitar ballads and dry humorous stories, Luedecke has been making a soundtrack to an authentic life for nearly twenty years.   

Songs like I quit my Job at the beginning of his career and the Early Days at the beginning of his family and dozens of other fan favourites trace a warm line of effort, sadness and joy and provide a soundtrack to many peoples’ own progress through adulthood, touching a rare place of truth and charm in the holiness of the mundane. His performing style with his easy-going humour and storytelling creates a rare space of hopeful and intimate magic.   

Luedecke has kept up many worldwide concert appearances, playing in Europe and around Canada and the USA and six trips to Australia. The next stop in his tour? The NAC! In May 2022, Luedecke was awarded an honorary doctorate from King’s University in Halifax for his cultural contributions.
