about
Mike Aubé is a guitar-slinging goofball poet. With music that is shaped by the natural beauty of the Maritimes, he explores humanity’s place in the natural world, acknowledging our failures with humour and compassion, and celebrating our successes. And occasionally, humour takes over completely, resulting in off-the-wall songs about UFOs, rambling road trips and getting trapped in a sofa. Inspired by the likes of Arlo Guthrie, Greg Brown and Townes Van Zandt, Aubé delivers these subtly subversive and nature-loving folk songs with a rhythmic guitar orientation and whiskey-smooth vocals. His songs remind us to be reverent toward the earth, resist the fad lifestyles of the corporate conspiracy, and yet to be careful not to take ourselves too seriously. Currently out of Windsor, NS, Aubé made his name with local alt-country favourites Rust Bucket, who became a fixture on the Annapolis Valley's contemporary folk scene over their seven-year career. Organic and with a laid-back stage presence, this is feel-good music that nevertheless can make you think - like "medicine for your soul".
