Renowned Canadian songwriter Stephen Fearing is poised to once again captivate
listeners with the release of his next album, The Empathist. The 10-track record,
produced in collaboration with Grammy-nominated drummer Ken Coomer (Wilco, Uncle
Tupelo), showcases Fearing’s ability to blend heartfelt storytelling with rich, immersive
soundscapes. Recorded in Nashville over a whirlwind week, The Empathist features
contributions from long time Blackie & The Rodeo Kings bassist John Dymond and
Nashville multi-instrumentalist Jim Hoke, whose mastery of pedal steel, piano, and
saxophone adds depth and texture to the album.
As Stephen Fearing and The Sentimentals tour The Empathist, fans can expect an
emotionally charged live experience that highlights the creative risks and bold musical
interplay that have defined Fearing’s career. With each performance, they continue to
push the boundaries of roots music, weaving together authenticity and innovation in a
way that resonates deeply with listeners. Friday October 17.
