about

Lorne Brown is a singer of old songs and a teller of old tales whose songs and stories have been gathered over a lifetime of listening and joining in with the great keepers of many traditions. A Link in the Chain is a three-volume collection of some of his most well-loved stories and songs.

Drawing on his legendary vast repertoire, Lorne sings and tells us old ballads, family stories, ancient legends and well-loved folktales. In both English and French, he makes us laugh and cry, challenges us to think, surprises us with little known facts – did you know that When You and I Were Young, Maggie is a Canadian song from Hamilton? Lorne takes us fishing on a famous logging river, entertains us with recitations, and has us singing along with his banjo. Lorne intersperses haunting tunes on his alto recorder with lullabies and literary tales, offering a collection of all that he holds dear: family, nature, the moon, the importance of friends, the almost spiritual experience of group singing, a respect for the past, and a love of Canada.
