Sam MacPherson
with Mikey Ferrari
at 7th St Entry

first-avenue.com

Los Angeles, by-way-of New Jersey, singer-songwriter and producer Sam MacPherson is on his first headlining “Powerlines Tour” … and he’ll stop by the 7th Street Entry on April 29th.

Named one of the top New Jersey artist to watch in 2023, MacPherson previously opened for Chelsea Cutler and The Brook & The Bluff, and collaborated with Stephen Sanchez, Jonah Kagen, Garrett Nash, VINCINT, and Quinn Lewis, among others.

MacPherson’s forthcoming project is slated for release later this year via Elektra Entertainment.

Los Angeles based alt-folk singer-songwriter Mikey Ferrari to open. He recently singed to Neon Gold Records (HAIM, Matt Maeson, et. al) to release “Crash Course” from upcoming Stories From Montana EP.

Ferrari adds details on the song, “Last year [when it] was a particularly dark time for me. I was living out of my car, sleeping on various friends’ couches while I was writing and recording this project. I felt like I was doing so much and was so busy but at the same time had lost track and feeling of myself and my identity despite unpacking so much of the baggage of years prior. The song is about states of depression and trauma I’ve experienced and how I’ve really questioned if I was really living a life or just inhabiting my own body. A year later I am so happy to be in a different place than I was. I am very grateful to be able to say that.”
