Jeffrey Foucault, Caitlin Canty

"Salt As Wolves" album release show. $20. jeffreyfoucault.com

press release: One of the finest songwriters of his generation, Jeffrey Foucault has taken, in his own words, 'the small roads;' building a brick and mortar independent international touring career of ten studio albums, countless miles and critical accolades. He's been lauded for "Stark, literate songs that are as wide open as the landscape of his native Midwest." (The New Yorker) and described as "Quietly brilliant" (The Irish Times), while catching the ear of everyone from Greil Marcus to Don Henley (who regularly covers Foucault in his live set), to Van Dyke Parks (who offered to play on Foucault’s 2011 album, Horse Latitudes, after catching a live radio interview). 'Salt As Wolves' is a line from Othello describing boldness; a fitting title to frame a record of blues played bold and loosely, without rehearsal or cant. With his fifth collection of original songs Foucault stakes out and enlarges the ground he's been working diligently all the new century, quietly building a deep, resonant catalog of songs about love, memory, God, desire, wilderness and loss. Salt As Wolves gives us Jeffrey Foucault at the height of his powers, fronting an all-star band, turning the wheel of American music.

Caitlin Canty delivers her songs with a 1930’s Recording King guitar and a darkly radiant alto. Canty released Reckless Skyline on January 20, 2015; an album produced by acclaimed songwriter Jeffrey Foucault and featuring an all-star band on twelve songs that veer nimbly between country ballads and straight-up rockers, dark blues and sparsely arranged folk.
