Gabe Lee

Storytelling has been an anchor of Lee's music since the very beginning. He launched his careeras a genre-bending musician after returning to Tennessee, quickly progressing from dive bar gigsto high-profileopening slots (including shows with Jason Isbell, Los Lobos, and other artistswho, like him, blurred the lines between roots-rock, country, and other forms of American folkmusic) to his own headlining shows. Throughout it all, he drew upon the narrativeskills he'd sharpened as a student. If albums like Honky-Tonk Hell and The Hometown Kid often unfolded like autobiographical entries from his road journal, then Drink the River shows an even broader range of his storytelling abilities. Lee isn't just writing songs about himself; he's writing songs about all of us. And maybe, in doing so, he can bring us a little closer together.
