eTown welcomes Reed Foehl and Max Gomez to eTown Hall Saturday, December 21st for a night of stellar Americana.About Reed Foehl:
Born in a small country town in New England and raised in a musical family, Grammy-nominated songwriter Reed Foehl crafts stories of the human condition with poignant lyrics and a voice that both pushes boundaries and honors tradition. His music, a blend of genuine Folk and Americana, is marked by a dusty, patient quality that resonates deeply.
In May 2022, Foehl released his sixth studio album, Wild Wild Love, recorded with The Band of Heathens in Austin, TX. The Boston Globe praised his work, stating, “He sings like he feels every note, each song tells a story… of which he relates astonishingly well.”
Foehl received a Grammy nomination for his song “Fly,” co-written with Brent Cobb and covered by country legend Lee Ann Womack.
Now residing in the Green Mountains of Vermont, Foehl continues to tour globally, sharing his music with audiences around the world.
"One of the classic functions of a singer/songwriter is to exhort us to pay attention—to tune in, to look around.
Reed Foehl does the job as good as it can be done, with an unassumingly sweet voice that is as conversational as it is tuneful. On his most recent album Wild Wild Love, Foehl pulls off that rarest of musical magic tricks: making a time-tested sonic palette—acoustic guitar, Hammond organ, down-home harmonies—feel unexpected and revelatory. The effect is comforting and familiar, like greatest hits that you’ve loved your whole life…but have never heard before." -Mark Erelli
About Max Gomez:
Singer/Songwriter Max Gomez grew up in Taos, New Mexico, where he fell under the influence of country blues early on and developed a songwriting style that was uniquely his. He received critical acclaim upon the release of his debut album Rule The World (2013, New West Records); and his subsequent EP, Me and Joe (2017, Brigadoon Records), contained a freshly minted classic, “Make It Me,” which has gained over 4 million listeners on Spotify alone.
As a budding performer, Max apprenticed in the rarefied musical micro-climate of northern New Mexico, where troubadours like Michael Martin Murphey and Ray Wylie Hubbard helped foster a Western folk sound both cosmic and country.
He has shared billing on hundreds of stages with stalwarts of the genre like James McMurtry, Buddy Miller, John Hiatt, Patty Griffin, Tommy James & The Shondells, Jeff Beck, and Johnny Depp. Judging by the company he keeps, Gomez is poised to emerge as a prominent voice of Americana’s next generation. The forthcoming album, Memory Mountain, is set to be released in 2025.
