Years before Americana music earned its own category at the Grammy Awards, Steve Forbert helped pioneer the genre's mix of folk, roots rock, and richly delivered storytelling. He's been a torchbearer of that sound for more than four decades, navigating the twists and turns of an acclaimed career that's taken him from gold records to Grammy nominations, from New York City's CBGB to Nashville's Bluebird Cafe, from his 1978 debut album to 2022's vital and versatile Moving Through America.
The songs take centerstage once again with Moving Through America. Filled with character portraits and quirky insights, the album unfolds like a mosaic of modern day American life, delivered by someone who's been crisscrossing the country for nearly half a century. With an author's nuance and a humorist's wit, Forbert offer glimpses into the everyday lives of his characters. He sounds every bit as spirited as he did in the late 70s, back when he left his hometown in Mississippi, and headed to NYC in search of new horizons.
When New Wave bands began to dominate the FM airwaves, Forbert stuck to his guns, continuing to fly the flag for organic roots music that proudly blurred the lines between genres. “Romeo's Tune,” a track from his 1979 breakthrough album, became a hit, climbing to Number 11 in the U.S. Forbert has remained prolific, serving as an elder statesman of Americana music while still writing music that's spry and steadfast.

Since moving to a rural area on the west coast of New Jersey along the Delaware River, where, “his neighbors are now cows and horses," Michael Patrick has found country living provides inspiration. Shortly thereafter he quit his day job of 15 years to perform and write music full-time. He’s even produced two new albums, Crossing Bridges and HOME. Patrick’s songs are always heartfelt, and sometimes autobiographical, with some signature sarcasm and humor thrown in for good measure. Patrick has developed an appreciation of simplistic story-telling lyrics, catchy hooks and memorable melodies.
