PODGE LANE
plus support
Little Whelan’s • Wed 28th August 2024
‘In this spirit of defiance, ‘Down’ is a song to get up to and get moving. The single embodies a rock n roll attitude with a country sensibility and it’s easy to imagine Lane tearing up a live stage with the track.’ – Hot Press
‘Once we find happiness in our lives, we can put so much pressure on ourselves to never feel down again. Lane reminds us … that even when your dreams do come true that you are still human, and that’s actually a pretty good thing.’ – Grateful Web
‘With influences such as Johnny Cash, Buffy Sainte-Marie, and alternative country legends Wilco, Podge has his musical DNA set for him. Blending from his root genres of bluegrass, indie-rock, and country, Podge Lane creates music that will resonate with the listener while having a sound anchored in life.’ – Sinusoidal Music
