Steve Poltz is a self-described road dog and performance junkie who regularly spends 300 plus days a year on the road including regular stops in Halifax. Unless there's a pandemic. Born in Nova Scotia, raised in California, he now spends much of his time in Nashville when he's not on the road. Poltz has just released his 14th solo album, Stardust & Satellites and he describes himself as the Grateful Dead of Folk music. Whether it's crafting a song about a can of pop, or co-writing a Top 40 song with then-girlfiend Jewel, Poltz is a natural story teller. And a funny one at that. In this conversation, he talks about how the pandemic impacted his career and his life after contracting the Omicron variant. He also shares his take on divisive American Politics, his impromptu run for President and his brief infatuation with live streaming from his kitchen as he made tea and oatmeal. A unique performer with a penchant for quirky and catchy tunes, Poltz is a joy to watch and listen to.
