After a sold out concert in 2025, Chester’s own folk treasure Old Man Luedecke returns to the Playhouse with songs, laughs, and storytelling that will charm locals and visitors alike.

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 (including the 2025 ECMA for Songwriter of the Year) 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.

With 10 albums to his name, and worldwide concert appearances, Luedecke’s songs like “I Quit My Job” and” The Early Days” 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.

Opening for this delightful concert is Rose Morrison, an artist who embodies the roar of the sea with a pure and delicate voice, captivating audiences for nearly 25 years as a professional musician. Hailing from Baddeck, Nova Scotia, this versatile fiddler has carved out an impressive career, collaborating with luminaries such as Oscar and Grammy Award winner Glen Hansard, Irish folk legend Breanndán Ó Beaglaoich (Breanndán Begley), and celebrated Scottish-Canadian tenor John McDermott. 

Join us for an uplifting and delightful folk concert as we bid a sweet farewell to our summer season!
