Back to EpisodesRichard Inman | The Canadian Troubadour Keeping Real Country Music Alive
Description
Richard Inman is a Canadian country and folk singer-songwriter whose deep baritone voice, understated guitar work, and unvarnished storytelling have earned him a devoted following throughout Canada and beyond. Raised in southeastern Manitoba and shaped by time spent on the Canadian prairies, Inman writes songs about ordinary people, hard miles, heartache, home, and the landscapes that surround them.
Country music was part of Inman’s life from an early age. He grew up hearing artists such as Johnny Cash and George Jones, eventually beginning to write his own songs as a teenager. Those traditional influences remain evident in a style that favors honest lyrics and memorable stories over polished trends.
Inman has built his reputation the old-fashioned way: one song, one stage and thousands of miles at a time. His touring has taken him from intimate prairie bars to festivals and international performances in countries including Denmark and Germany. His years of relentless touring and a residency at Winnipeg's celebrated Times Change(d) High & Lonesome Club helped establish him as an important voice in the Canadian country and roots scene.
His catalog includes releases such as 30 Days, Richard Inman, Hasta La Vista, Come Back Through, Inman, and more recent songs including “Lethbridge County Blue,” “Gone,” and 2025's “Hell Of A Daydream.” His 2022 album Come Back Through was recorded in Manitoba and Alberta, with Inman handling vocals, acoustic guitar and drums and co-producing the project with Kevin Peters.
What makes Richard Inman especially suited for the Musical Miles Podcast is the authenticity behind the music. He's a road-tested troubadour whose songs feel lived rather than manufactured—music rooted in country tradition, prairie life and the experiences of the people he's encountered along the way.
In this episode, Byron Duffin sits down with Richard Inman for a conversation about songwriting, life on the road, the experiences behind his music, and the kind of authentic country storytelling that continues to connect with listeners on both sides of the Canadian border.
Richard Inman doesn't just sing country songs—he tells the stories of the people and places encountered along the road.
