Tom Irwin is a 50-something, guitar playing guy, called “a modern day troubadour” by Wilco’s John Stirratt. He’s spent a lifetime making a living making music in the Midwest with occasional forays into the rest of the country. This track debuts here at AUK for his new record “All That Love” which includes members of his other band The Autumn Defense including New York City’s Greg Wieczorek, aka, G. Wiz, on drums (Norah Jones) and Chicago-based musician and owner of Lakland Music, John Pirruccello on 12-string guitar and pedal steel.
