MOE REEN

Country-folk songsmith Moe Reen (they/them) writes from the heart, for the heart. A lifelong vocalist, their old-school country voice harkens to honky-tonk-heartbreak crooners of yesteryear, while their lyrics appeal to the personal-political concerns of today. The songs on their debut EP, Grow Again, include a finger-picked reflection on the malaise of seasonal depression alongside a slow-dancing lament likening climate deniers to unrequited lovers. Moe's marriage of sentimental sound with contemporary sentiment produces something distinctly their own: earnest lyrics cradled by melodies that tenderly soar to tend to the sore, soft spots of us all. 

Moe is based out of Columbus, Ohio, not far from where they were raised. You can often find them playing a show at their favorite haunt, the Rambling House, or walking along the Olentangy River. Recently, Moe has shared the stage at Nelsonville Music Festival and on the road with with fellow folk and country artists including Theo Lawrence, Zach Bryson, Olivia Ellen Lloyd, and Olive Klug. Touring as often as they can, they've played stages in Michigan, Chicago, Indianapolis, Kentucky, Nashville, Chattanooga, Birmingham, and New York City.
