Debra Fotheringham is a singer-songwriter, writer, and poet originally from American Fork, Utah. She has released three studio albums of original folk/roots music, including her 2007 self-titled album co-produced with Giles Reaves as well as Time (2010) produced by Scott Wiley.

Her most recent album The Darkness and the Sun (2017) was recorded mostly live over a few days at June Audio Recording Studios in Provo, UT with producer Scott Wiley (Bonnie Raitt, Elliott Smith). The Darkness and the Sun is full of timeless Americana-leaning original songwriting and a killer supporting cast of players, all setting the perfect stage for Fotheringham’s beautiful, versatile, moving voice.

Pop culture magazine popmatters praised the album as “a creative breakthrough” and Slug Magazine described it as full of “depth and rich expressiveness from start to end.”

In addition to her solo work, she is a member of the bluegrass/gospel/country collective The Lower Lights and was a featured vocalist on several albums by EDM artist Kaskade, including the song “How It Is” from his Grammy-nominated album, Atmosphere.

Her voice and songs have been featured on AMC’s Hell on Wheels, The CW’s Dynasty reboot, and the PBS program Road Trip Nation. Her poetry has been published in Headstuff, the CorkWords Anthology, and the 2023 Montpelier PoemCity Anthology. Her short fiction was featured in the literary journal, The Quarryman.
