Chicago Farmer Living Room Show
BLOOMINGTON, IL Chicago Farmer, the moniker Bloomington, Illinois Cody Diekhoff performs and writes under, is set to independently release his 7th album titled Midwest Side Stories on September 30, 2016. Midwest Side Stories is about hope, depression, job loss, meth, skateboards, a divided nation, used cars, the late shift, farms, factories, the destruction of our environment, and still being around to sing about it. The new release contains ten tracks all of which were written by Diekhoff (pronounced dee-cough), with the exception of the John Hartford classic Im Still Here.
Folk hero Todd Snider says, I love Chicago Farmers singing and playing and songs, but its the intention behind the whole of his work that moves me to consider him the genuine heir to Arlo Guthrie or Ramblin Jack Elliott. He knows the shell game that goes on under folk music which is sacred to me. Chicago Farmer is my brother; if you like me, youll love him.
Lyrically driven, Chicago Farmer delves into the social and political issues of todays world, taking it all in and putting it back out through music as a commentary on modern times in the Midwest. With his unfeigned and relatable approach, Chicago Farmer has earned a place in the
e heart of this generations rise of protest songs. He composes music written and sung by and for the working man, the regular person, bringing to mind modern day folk tales.
