Bahamas – set to live at The Workman’s Club, Dublin

Over 14 years and five albums, Canadian singer/songwriter Afie Jurvanen — a.k.a.  Bahamas — has specialized in the sort of tunes that feel as comfortable as your favorite  beaten-up pair of jeans: familiar in form, but embedded with a uniquely personal history.  His repertoire abounds with the sort of instantly cozy songs — be it folky ballads, breezy  yacht-rock jams, or bluesy shitkickers — that you’d swear you know from decades of  listening to oldies radio (or, more likely, Spotify, where signature serenades like 2012’s  “Lost in the Light” and 2014’s “All the Time” have moved well beyond the 100-million stream mark). But on closer inspection, his writing teems with quirks that are entirely his  own, as he wields a sly, self-deprecating sense of humor to transform relatable  observations on domesticity and aging into absurdist Seinfeldian vignettes. As the title of  his sixth album makes clear, if Bahamas was indeed a pair of jeans, they’d surely be  Bootcut: a modern take on traditional styles, rugged yet refined, tight in execution but  loose in vibe. Fittingly, the album was recorded in the spiritual homeland of wholesome,  denim-clad songcraft: Nashville.
