SUMMARY:Windhover Center for the Performing Arts presents Reese Fulmer & The Carriage House Band
DESCRIPTION:Born and raised in Gloucester MA before cutting his teeth as the manager of the iconic Saratoga Springs listening room Caffe Lena\, Reese Fulmer has emerged “with a poet’s sensibility rich with great storytelling and a healthy dose of irony.” (Viv Nesbitt\, Art of the Song) The 2023 and 2024 Americana Artist of the Year at the Thomas Edison Music Awards\, Reese and his band have become one of the fastest-rising groups in upstate NY with expansive live albums highlighting a reputation for compelling performances. With a rotating cast of talented players\, a broad and dynamic body of work\, and a refusal to set anything in stone\, their shows are always fresh\, full of joy\, and hard to describe. Think Wilco with hints of Prine and Zappa: “smart\, emotionally tuned arrangements and a stage presence that balanced earnestness with unpredictability. \nTheir live performance thrives in the liminal space between genres folk\, Americana\, jazz and the result is a sound that’s complex without being convoluted.” (NYSMusic) Fresh off a sold out performance at Old Sloop Coffeehouse in November\, where the band performed as a quartet\, they will return to Cape Ann for the first time with the entire ensemble.
