About the album:
Debra Fotheringham didn’t leave music.
Far from it. She’s made plenty of music in the years since her last original
EP, 2010’s Time. Her voice featured on songs by EDM artist Kaskade and
six albums by folk/bluegrass/gospel collective The Lower Lights (one song of
which featured prominently in a scene from AMC’s Hell On Wheels); she even
recorded an album of covers—from Hank to Dolly to Wilco to Lucinda Williams—
with The Blue Heart Revue.
But new, original songs were another story.
Call it woodshedding. Call it hibernating. Call
it whatever a caterpillar does in the cocoon. But Debra was absorbing it all,
taking her time, ingesting Americana, electronica, bluegrass, rock of the
classic and indie varieties, and more. And it all filters in its own way into
her new album The Darkness & The Sun.
Recorded over a few days with producer Scott
Wiley (Bonnie Raitt, Elliott Smith) at June Audio in Provo, UT, The Darkness
& The Sun is the sound of an artist who knows what she wants. The songs
are her strongest yet—sarcastic and biting in “Apologies”, real-life romantic
in “Odd-Shaped Pieces”, hopeful in “White Bird”, disillusioned in “Sometimes
The Wolf”, and more. And Fotheringham’s singing, always great, leaps to a new
level, the confidence gained by singing for so many other projects obvious.

The
Darkness And the Sun is full of timeless Americana-leaning songwriting and a killer
supporting cast, all setting the perfect stage for Fotheringham’s beautiful,
versatile, moving voice.
