Buzzy Americana singer/songwriter Jeremie Albino has just released a live performance video for “Lilac Way”. Watch the video now below.
For the song’s inspiration Jeremie says, “‘Lilac Way‘ is a song I wrote for my mom. We both love the lilacs that grow down in the county where I work. There’s a street out there that would always remind me of her whenever I drove it on the way home from a hard day at work on the farm. Anyhow, at the end of a long day I decided to give this one a shot on the stage of The Great Hall in Toronto. I only had one take before we got kicked out and here it is!”
The song can be heard on Jeremie’s wildly impressive debut album, Hard Time, which includes previously released singles “Last Night,” “The Cabin,” “Hard Time,“and “Storm.”
Jeremie Albino will be an official showcasing artist at this year’s AmericanaFest in Nashville. He will join J.S. Ondara, Caroline Spence and Nathaniel Rateliff this Thursday at the Station Inn at 9:30pm CT. He is also set to hit the road with St. Paul and The Broken Bones later this fall. All upcoming tour dates and festival appearances can be found below.
Trading the booming metropolis of Toronto for Prince Edward County, a decade of country living has given Jeremie the time and space needed to create an album overflowing with heart through vivid storytelling of life and love.Emulating the heroes before him like Lighting Hopkins and Skip James, Jeremie Albino offers a soft and insightful touch with his folk songs, and stomps and swaggers through soulful rock ‘n’ roll. Letting his heart lead the way, Jeremie’s lyrics tell vivid stories of “love, life, people, and another time.”
