Canadian punk folk pioneer Eugene Ripper returns to Edinburgh promoting his latest recordings – bringing limited edition lathe cut

heavy 7” vinyl – on at sale a the show only.

“…a one man folk punk explosion…one of Canada’s most respected songwriters…former guitar slinger from Stark Naked & The Fleshtones, now plays fast n furious folk punk with a nod to the roots of rock and even film noir…a mashup of Johnny Cash, Joe Strummer and The Ramones with a splash of big audio beats…all wrapped up in an acoustic songwriter punk stance…volleying between punk, folk and rock, Ripper jumps all over each style, stealing from one and reshaping another until he comes up with a unique sound and vibe all his own. “ 

Eugene Ripper is a trailblazer in Canada’s punk folk scene. From his early days with Canada’s first-wave surf punk rockers Stark Naked and the Fleshtones and throughout his enduring solo career, Ripper has been a master of blending punk, folk, blues, country, beats and rock into a unique musical footprint. Celebrated for this hybrid approach imbued with a DIY punk rock ethos, Ripper’s musical journey has seen him flourish from the Toronto punk scene to the muddy roots of Vancouver and the vibrant anti-folk scene of New York City’s East Village. His latest releases include “Punks and Pushers” and “Go Van Gogh” both framed in a driving punk blues rock infused sound serving up Ripper’s vivid sharp lyrical touch 

With a guitar in his holster and a full clip of songwriting ammunition at his disposal, Carl Marah is answering the beckoning call of the wandering troubadours before him and stepping out to bring his own distinct brand of musicianship to stages far and wide across the land – on his own terms.

Having cut his teeth in the Edinburgh music scene for the past ten years, most notably co-leading psychedelic pop outfit Logan’s Close across the nation and throughout Europe, he is now cultivating his own solo venture, using it as a vehicle to realise treasured compositions he has amassed during this tenure.

Drawing inspiration from the likes of Sixto Rodriguez, Donovan and Paul Simon, his songbook ranges from tender acoustic ballads to haunting electrified anthems. Exploring all musical possibilities and channeling whatever he sees fit into his music, this is a performer that demands to be heard.

With his upcoming debut single “Siren Song”, produced by Rod Jones (Idlewild, Hamish Hawk mgmt), Marah is heading out on the road across the UK to promote the release. The premier show of the tour in Edinburgh at the legendary Sneaky Pete’s promises to be a special night. You know what to do.
