Jon Langford (ex-Mekons) Concert at Amoeba | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Jon Langford’s (Mekons, Waco Brothers) new album, Old Devils, is out now on Bloodshot Records. Langford will also perform at the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival in Golden Gate Park on Saturday, October 2nd.

Full of soulful urgency and longing, of lost sailors, cruel pirates and creeping inevitabilities, the new solo album by Jon Langford travels o’er the seas and malls, from the pubs of Wales to the swamps of the settled life, steeped in the haunted, never-ending search for place. Old Devils sits on the tuff wharves of the world and swaps stories and worries, the lies told much better than the truths, conjuring the ghosts of mates-in-spiritual-arms from Dylan Thomas to Johnny Cash.
