about

Along the L&N is a more straightforward folk/traditional record than Will Ellis’ previous release, Canaanland. It conjures visions of a bygone era of folk troubadours riding the rails, singing about life and work in harder, but simpler times. “No Bosses in Heaven,” with it’s pro-union dreams of an honest days’ work in Heaven without the company squeezing you for your last pennies for basic provisions, could’ve easily been written by a coal miner in Pennsylvania at the turn of the last century. And the closer, “Solemn Thoughts of the Future” perfectly encapsulates the feeling of resignation at a life spent as a cog in the great American capitalist machine.

Written, performed, and recorded by Will Ellis except track 6 written by Charles Wesley

Ian Craft kindly contributed bass on tracks 1 and 5
