Canadian singer and songwriter Fred Eaglesmith makes music that lives somewhere between country and contemporary folk, with a dark undertow that suggests rock & roll without making it an audible influence. Eaglesmith's songs frequently deal with themes of a hardscrabble existence where liquor, drugs, violence, and desperation are facts of life along with love and good times; his lyrics are often leavened with sharp wit and his delivery can be sorrowful, energetic, joyous, or sarcastic depending on the song. Depending on if he's performing solo, as part of a duo, or with a full band, Eaglesmith's music can lean toward country (1997's Lipstick, Lies & Gasoline), bluegrass (2003's Balin), or folk (his 1980 debut Fred J. Eaglesmith), with all his configurations blending his lyrical voice with clever storytelling and a sense of showmanship. As distinctive as his material may be, his peers have shown their admiration by recording his songs, with Miranda Lambert, the Cowboy Junkies, Kasey Chambers, and Alan Jackson among the artists who've covered his work. One thing he'd never done was make a holiday album, until he crossed that off the list with 2023's A Christmas Card.
