about
Raised in the California neighborhood once home to Neil Young, Gram Parsons, and countless other Americana music icons, Remy Sher is as much a product of his Laurel Canyon upbringing as he is of studying songwriters like John Prine and Jason Isbell. Sher’s debut album The Things You’ll Forget, released October 2023, is at the crossing of classic folk and modern alt-country, placing storytelling at the forefront of timeless yet fresh sounds of mandolin, pedal steel, fiddle and acoustic guitar. Released May 2024, his EP Feet on the Ground takes a more laid-back approach, with a deeper dive into the raw and acoustic side of his songwriting.
Devoting several months to writing and nothing else after a partner “felt the heat” and took off running, “Nevermind” became the lead single to “Heat,” Sher’s full-length debut. Inspired by both the lush, acoustic sounds of 1970s storytellers like Don Williams, and the gritty alt-country movement of the 2000s, the album steers Sher’s songwriting in a new direction. A less on-the-nose, mandolin-led Americana approach than his previous works, Sher's "Heat" is a slow burning record that experiments with more distortion, pianos, and screeching fiddles. His most authentic record to date, produced by Ben Schwab (Sylvie) in Los Angeles, California, Remy Sher’s “Heat” is set for release in 2026.
