The Empty Pockets wsg Reese Fulmer and The Carriage House Band
Light flickers in even the darkest of spaces and smallest cracks. Similarly, The Empty Pockets ignite a bright flame of their own by harnessing a joyful friction between Americana, folk, and rock n roll spiked with roots soul. The Chicago quartetJosh Solomon [guitar, vocals], Erika Brett [keyboards, vocals], Nate Bellon [bass, vocals], and Adam Balasco [drums]lean on an unspoken, yet airtight musical dialogue honed by countless miles on the road, performances alongside the likes of Kenny Loggins, a procession of fan favorite releases (including a #1 debut), and a wealth of memories together. However, the musicians shine brighter than ever on their 2023 independent full-length LP, Gotta Find The Moon. The Empty Pockets continue to pave a path of their own. Theyve honed their signature style across albums such as The Ten Cent Tour [2015], Voices [2017], Snow Day [2018], Tanglewoods [2019], and Live In Seattle [2019]. After bowing in the Top 10 of the Heatseekers Albums Chart and Americana/Folk Chart, they delivered their first #1 when Outside Spectrum toppled the Billboard Blues Albums Chart in 2022. Along the way, they not only backed the likes of Al Stewart, Gary Wright, and Simon Kirke (with whom they made a record with to boot), but they also appeared on PBS Soundstage with Loggins. During 2022, Pollstar touted them among its Top International Livestreamers. Touching down on multiple continents, theyve supported comedy legend George Lopez, alternative phenomenon Portugal. The Man, and many more.
Gotta Find The Moon saw them progress yet again. This time around, they recorded in one room together with minimal overdubs. It was pretty magical to share the same space and continue to read each other and create, recalls Erika. Even though its a digital album, its quite old-fashioned, agrees Josh. Speaking of, they tracked the majority of the LP at Abbey Road Studios in London. With a handful of days off during a UK run, they absorbed the spirit of this hallowed ground.
Reese Fulmer & The Carriage House Band challenge the traditional relationship of a songwriter and his band, with a fluidly rotating cast of top-notch players and a flair for experimentation that combine for a unique and mesmerizing live performance. Add to that a keen lyricism that explores the human experience with a patient and poetic touch and you have the Capital Region's answer to the indie-folk/alt-Americana boundary pushed forward by Wilco and Iron & Wine. 2023 & 2024 Thomas Edison Capital Region Music Awards Americana Artist of the Year
