Josh Fortenbery Juneau, Alaska
Self-absorbed but rarely self-serious songwriter based in Juneau, Alaska. Sings sad songs but smiles a lot and usually means
it. Likes: dogs, blood harmonies, happy hour. Dislikes: earnestness, gore, the internet.
Josh’s debut album, No Such Thing as Forever, is a neurotic reflection on isolation, misinformation, family, and death. An existential crisis set to music.

Daddy's Country Gold
by Melissa Carper
supported by 12 fans who also own “Heirlooms”
I have a TBI, so memory is a big theme of my life. And recently entered recovery, and clear so bring on more memories (like the wonderful show at the Blue Door). My dad was a steeler, starting with Rogers Twins when he was 14. Sneaked him in the back door of a Texas dance hall-he also played with Merl Lindsay before Western Swing slowly began to disappear. http://genejones.bizland.com/
