Katie’s guest Josh Fortenbery plays live tracks and reflects on the writing of his debut album. Southeast Alaska grown and produced, No Such Thing as Forever is getting strong reviews in Americana circles from across the country to across the pond. Fortenbery’s songwriting is informed by both his immediate and the greater human family. “I’m just trying to be honest about my grief, anxiety, and carelessness, and hope that resonates with people,” he says. “I’m trying to remember what ties me to the folks I love and folks I’ve never met.” Josh is a member of the Muskeg Collective, a team of Alaskan string band leaning singer songwriters and musicians uplifting each other's writing and playing.
