Jimmy Rankin Trio   October 2nd, 2023 Doors 7, Show 8 Seated Event New Joel Plaskett-produced album, national tour coming to Winnipeg, in October One of the true originals in Canadian music has moved from Nashville to Nova Scotia, and is celebrating with music only he could make. Jimmy Rankin's new Moving East is pure East Coast and brings the kitchen to the party with this homecoming album featuring true stories, tall tales and bittersweet ballads, and the classic folk-rock sound that Rankin helped pioneer. At a time when people are searching out authentic cultural voices, and well-crafted songs, Rankin has made an unapologetically East Coast folk-rock record, with a raw and unsentimental edge. “I’m putting the party back in the kitchen” quips Rankin. It's called Moving East because that's exactly what Jimmy's done. He's moved back to Nova Scotia after seven years spent living and working in Nashville. Hooking up with fellow Nova Scotian Joel Plaskett as producer, he's made an album that appeals to young and old alike, with songs running the gamut from gritty pub tunes to soulful ballads all featuring great storytelling, and fine songwriting. One of the most famed Canadian songwriters, Jimmy Rankin has written such classic Rankin hits as North Country, You Feel The Same Way Too, and the Juno winning single Fare The Well Love, voted the #1 East Coast song of all time by CBC listeners across Canada. His own hits include Followed Her Around, Morning Bound Train, and Cool Car. Jimmy’s the guy who wrote Mull River Shuffle, a Cape Breton anthem with an all-ages cult following, jamming dance floors and mosh pits at parties, weddings and raves as the last big song of the night. Says Rankin “With Moving East, I was trying to distill the fabric of Maritime culture into a musical collection replete with life’s highs and lows, and breathe life into stories that capture a feeling, a moment in time, live off the floor and that are organic.” It’s an album full of classic Cape Breton storytelling, unashamedly celebrating his moving back, and making the music he loves.
