Jeffrey Foucault: A Distinctive Voice in American Music

In two decades on the road, Jeffrey Foucault has become one of the most distinctive voices in American music, refining a sound instantly recognizable for its simplicity and emotional power. With a string of critically acclaimed studio albums, he has built a brick-and-mortar international touring career and a devoted following that includes luminaries like Van Dyke Parks, Greil Marcus, and Don Henley.

Critical Acclaim and Distinctive Style

His stark, literate songs are described as being as wide open as the landscape of his native Midwest (The New Yorker), and his beat-up troubadour folk has been whittled to dolorous perfection (Uncut). The Irish Times has praised his songwriting brilliance.

Upcoming Release: THE UNIVERSAL FIRE

In September of 2024, Jeffrey Foucault will release "THE UNIVERSAL FIRE," a meditation on the nature of beauty, artifact, and loss, following the passing of his best friend and longtime drummer Billy Conway to cancer in 2021. Augmenting Foucault’s all-star band with members of Calexico and Bon Iver (drummer John Convertino and producer/saxophonist Mike Lewis), the album sets Conway’s death against the massive 2008 fire at Universal Studios that destroyed the master recordings of some bedrock American music, to interrogate ideas about mortality, legacy, meaning, and calling.
