About Aidan Nolan
Aidan Nolan is a folk singer-songwriter, originally from Australia, although he relocated to the United States in 2005. He released his solo debut album Tales from the Sun in 1974, disappeared under the radar for a long time... then released a second album, Witchy Man in 2014. During his younger years in Australia Nolan played in several bands, including the folk duo Garage Plus, the blues band Respect, Daisy Roots, the duo Nolan-McKinley, Scarecrow and Trust Me, all before going solo in the early 1970s. In 1974 he recorded his debut album Tales From The Sun on the Copperfield label with John J. Francis producing. Two singles were lifted from the album, 'Superman' and 'One Out On A Limb'. A while later Nolan formed Beyond Madness, performing covers of Madness, Split Enz and Ian Dury. Aidan then took up teaching full time and disappeared from the music scene until a chance discovery by Stephen Lightbody of Two Faced Records heard his 1974 album. Stephen embarked on a mission to track Aidan down. He finally found him in 2005, leading to the re-release of Nolan's music. Nolan then relocated to the U.S., releasing his long, long overdue second album Witchy Man in 2014.
