about

"Limelight A Lost Folk Tape Saga: 2005-2011" is a collection of tunes written and recorded by Swedish indie artist Tim Schmidt in c. 2005-2011. The 10 original folk songs are finally being released via Waldhütte Wildbühne in 2023. A piece of tape and typed song titles, a portrait of a seated Prince Schmidt is seen on the green cover of the album filled with previously unheard tunes now found through a incredible music find found in a dusty attic space. The photo on the cover is a selfportrait snapped in the summer of 2012 in an abandoned house in south-east Sweden.

*Guests on vocals: harmonica, saxophone, clarinet, bass are also to be found in two songs. Yes the 2nd song Lighthouse Keeper is hypnotic but grounded folk. The first one bare and free the third is light and "free" like the 2nd version of "Crow Jane". Other tunes are are in other ways and style, you see.

Musicians are Emma Bensing (Vocals), Maja Landin (Clarinet), Jennie Ståbis (Vocals, Harmonica), Johannes Ståhl (Bass), Simon Winqvist (Saxophone), and Tim Schmidt (all live takes on acoustic guitar & vocals, and the rest of the instruments and prod. and so on). All names named appear on this album. Two songs were recorded live in concert (2007, 2008) by Johan Christoffersson and/or Juhani Hemilä and co. All other recordings by Tim Schmidt.

All songs written by Tim Schmidt.
