Faye Webster

1 upcoming festival

Pedal steel and yacht-rock chords under deadpan songwriting about being slightly bored and very sad — Atlanta cool that turned ennui into a signature sound.

Faye Webster is a singer and songwriter from Atlanta, Georgia. Her music sits between indie folk, country and soft soul, built around pedal steel, loose rhythm-section playing and jazz-inflected chord changes, with vocals delivered in a flat, conversational tone. Her lyrics tend toward plain-spoken observations about relationships, boredom and small domestic details, often with a dry humour that undercuts the lushness of the arrangements. Webster is also a photographer, and has shot portraits of musicians connected to Atlanta's rap scene, an interest reflected in the way her records sit slightly apart from conventional singer-songwriter production.
