This is the 18th season of Tunesmith Night. Each gathering features three songwriters sharing original work in a round-robin format.

The musicians

Longtime Joseph resident John Moro says he’s just a “fun-loving musician who likes writing politically and existentially motivated songs and sometimes a heartfelt one.” Dylan inspired him to write protest songs and read Krishnamurti, but Moro has also been influenced by bands from James Brown to Third Eye Blind and beyond, and loves playing Celtic music as much as rock and roll.

Steve Fulton is a long-time singer-songwriter, producer and recording engineer based in Boise, Idaho, where he owns and operates Audio Lab recording studios. For 12 years Fulton was singer, guitarist and principal songwriter in the group House of Hoi Polloi in which time they released five albums and toured the northwest extensively. He has released three records on his Uncommon Records label — “Shock Remission,” “Said & Heard” and “Eponym.” Eponym was the number one seller at independent record store, The Record Exchange, in 2016.

Fulton is described as “a personable fingerstyle acoustic guitarist in an Americana, modern folk, singer-songwriter style with a funky twist.” He has opened for Bruce Cockburn, Tori Amos, Jewel, Shawn Colvin, John Hiatt, Michael Franti and the Wallflowers. He was the recipient of The Idaho Commission on the Arts Fellowship Grant in 2009 as well as the Mayor’s Choice award that same year. Learn more at www.stevefultonmusic.com

Noble Holt is a 20-year-old guitar player and singer-songwriter from Boise, Idaho. He writes songs and performs in two bands in the valley called Captain SNAFU and Moon Owl’s Mages playing different shades of rock n roll, but holds a strong love for writing deeply personal folk and classic country, which he performs in solo and duo shows often.
