Performing music from his new album The Empathist, recorded in Nashville with Ken Coomer (Uncle Tupelo, Wilco) and released on Ging Records in 2025
In the vast tapestry of musical troubadours, Stephen Fearing stands as a singular figure. His vivid, lyrical songs are elevated by his mastery of the guitar and the haunting resonance of his melodic, cobalt voice. With a career spanning multiple decades and acclaimed albums, Fearing has shared stages and studios with an eclectic assortment of musical legends, including Merle Haggard, Richard Thompson, and Cassandra Wilson. As a co-founder of Canadian roots-rock icons Blackie and the Rodeo Kings, Fearing's genre-busting music consistently captures the messy splendour of the human condition, weaving tales that resonate deeply with listeners. "I’m a storyteller more than a singer/songwriter," Fearing says, "because I understand that The Story is more interesting than my story."
