Pla ying toda y’s hit country
a refurbished vintage camper
trailer. 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.
