Debra Fotheringham

For over eight years singer/songwriter and American Fork, UT native, Debra Fotheringham, has been performing professionally both as singer/guitar player and as a percussionist. In the spring of 2007 Debra released her eponymous debut album, produced by Nashville-producer Giles Reaves. That summer Debra toured extensively around the United States and Europe, from Seattle to New York to Paris, including an invitation to perform in New York as the featured artist for the 10,000 subscribers of the world’s largest acoustic podcast on iTunes. That same year Debra was nominated for an FCMA Pearl Award for her vocal performance on a best-selling lullaby album. In 2008 Debra was selected as one of the 10 finalists at the prestigious Rocky Mountain Folks Festival Songwriting Competition in Colorado featuring artists like Patty Griffin and Amos Lee. In 2009 Debra's music was featured on the PBS show Roadtrip Nation and that same year Debra was honored with a nomination for Best Song at the world's largest independent music awards ceremony in Nashville, TN. In September 2010 Debra released her second studio album, a six-song EP entitled "Time" recorded live and produced by Scott Wiley.



"Her future surely holds opportunities to play in front of thousands of fans at larger venues." --Deseret News
"Utah Valley's Favorite Local Performer." --Utah Valley Magazine
"Fotheringham is perhaps best known for her smooth, jazzy voice and impressive vocal range. Her live performances have the precision of a studio recording. Fotheringham's shows are never disappointing." --UVSC College Times
"Her eclectic style fits as easily in a full-band show as it does a living room. It seems like no place is too small for this hard-working musician, and her website details her adventures through the west, sleeping in cars, looking at stars, and finding Seattle's perfect open air market. Fotheringham's honesty and humanity are as appealing as her talents." --Square Magazine
