For the past two years running, local troubadour Tyler Fortier has been a
fi nalist in EW’s “Next Big Thing” singles competition, and if his most recent work
is any indication of his progress as an artist it’s only a matter of time before the
guy takes the cake. “It’s possible to evolve while standing still,” EW wrote of his
fourth album, Love Is Fleeting, going on to say that “as this record makes clear,
Fortier has matured both as a songwriter and a performer… Strings, a whisper
of piano or string here and there, and occasional drum work that chugs and
snaps like the wheels of a train bound for Folsom Prison.” Fortier plays with
Austin and Jenckes at 7pm Sunday, Jan. 23, at Cozmic Pizza; $5.
