Ryan Cook, “Lovesick blues” // VZ Interview
We sit down with Ryan Cook of Nova Scotia, Canada, for a few beers and a few laughs at Bobby’s Idle Hour in Nashville, TN. Our subjects range from dairy farming to country novelty songs.
Mr. Cook is a bit of a time machine. He takes us back to when milk was delivered to your house, country was from the country, and songs were about things that mattered, written by people that gave a damn. I don’t know what’s in the water up there in Canadia, but music row ain’t seen this style in awhile.
Best of all, he’s considering a move to Nashville, pending his green card. No border hopping now, Ryan! Feel free to spam him emails supporting the move, I know I will be.
Seriously though folks, he’s a stand up gentleman and a talented performer. If you get the chance to see him in action, jump on it or regret having not done so, FOREVER!
have a day,
Anthony T.
