Ghedi, Jim

Wasteland

Jim Ghedi's third album, 'Wasteland,' marks a bold evolution in folk music, blending traditional songs with original compositions. Recorded over two years at Tesla Studios in Sheffield, it features collaborators like David Grubb (fiddle), Dean Honer (synths), and vocalists from Lankum and Landless. The album explores themes of personal grief, societal collapse, and the solace of nature, while reflecting on the decline of Northern England's working-class communities. With electric guitar, expansive drums, and layered arrangements, tracks like the lead single 'Wasteland' achieve a cinematic depth. 'Wasteland' solidifies Ghedi's role as a transformative figure in contemporary folk.
