Getting by Àipping vin- tage furniture, selling art, and designing projects for friends and small businesses, Boeh- mer was afforded the time to write his ¿rst songs under the name Tenderfoot, playing at small bars and house shows across the country. Some of these ¿rst tunes are still per- formed today. With an unabashedly roman- tic, lyrics-driven approach to songwriting, Boehmer excavates past relationships, growing up queer in the South, and living in the tension between city life and a natural spiritualism. Though at the Sou’Wester Boehmer will appear and per- form solo guitar and vocals, Tenderfoot has grown to in- clude Jude Miqueli on drums and percussion, Gabriel Mo- linaro on keys, and Darcey Zoller on cello. The band plans to record its ¿rst full-length album this year. The Sou’Wester Lodge is located at 3728 J Place. For more information, call 360- 642-2542.
