Emily Nenni and Movin’ Shoes is all about the right fit. Made in Memphis, the Nashville based singer-songwriter’s fourth full length album is as much about dancing as following the steps of understanding and respect. Nenni’s songs reflect her solicitude, but are much more soulful in this setting - taking inspiration from the many impassioned performers of the region, to 60’s girl groups and honky tonk heroes.
Pairing once again with producer John James Tourville (The Deslondes), Movin’ Shoes was cut at Matt -Ross-Spang’s new Southern Grooves studio. The 13 tracks tie up nicely with added covers from Paul Simon, Delbert McClinton and Cass Elliott.
Movin’ Shoes will be released on May 1st via New West Records.

Scott Gilmore and Sarah Vitort are Fox and Bones—energetic offbeat folksters with a retro-tinged, soul-stirring, modern vintage bent. The indomitable duo has brought their optimistic Americana polish to international stages shared with the likes of Rayland Baxter, The Dead South, ZZ Ward, Fantastic Cat and ALO among others.
Fox and Bones’ fourth album titled "Long Time Honey” is a collaboration with esteemed songwriter Greg Holden and has received international acclaim for its upbeat and heartfelt songwriting. Zona Emergente (Mexico) praised the duo, stating, "They manage to make you feel like you can take on the world", while Naga Mag (Greece) lauded, "The much-loved vocals are so familiar and warm that you feel the love overflowing inside you" and Americana Highways (US) beamed Long Time Honey “should rightly be considered one of the best Americana albums of the year”.
Their hardworking artistic output has earned them first place at the 2023 Tucson Folk Festival songwriting contest and second place in the International Acoustic Music Awards, amongst other accolades. In between their rigorous tour schedule, the duo founded Portland’s Folk Festival: an annual, three-night celebration of folk and Americana music at the iconic Crystal Ballroom in their hometown of Portland, Oregon.
