Jon Nolan lives in the milltown of Newmarket, NH, where summers are a brief reprieve from months of cold and snow. There are two muddy weeks the locals call “spring.” Autumn is nice. Crisp air makes the coffee even better. Still a frontman of New England alt-country champs Say ZuZu (Strolling Bones/New West), Nolan explores the dreamier, pop-infused parts of his Americana sensibility in his solo material with his band Good Company. Friends Geoff Taylor (bass), Zach Tremblay (guitar) and Rick Habib (drums) accidentally formed Good Co. behind a new batch of Nolan songs in a barn in the summer of 2022. Roland Nicol (pedal steel) was kidnapped and added to the lineup the following year to round out the sound. The new Jon Nolan & Good Co. album (Nolan’s third) is due in early 2024.
Laura Fox is a folk/soul singer-songwriter from southern Maine. An intimate and engaging performer, she writes about love, the lack thereof, and the in-between. Her songs and her voice are soothing and soulful—if you’ve ever loved someone, you’ll surely connect with her heartfelt lyrics.
The band:
Whitney Roy, vocals (Old Hat Stringband, Fox + Roy, The Hazel Project)
Jim Dozet, electric guitar (Tourist Attraction, Crown Jules, Press Project)
Roland "LeFox" Nicol, bass (Rhye, Rusty Boys, Jon Nolan & Good Co)
Rick Habib, drums (The Kate Redgate Band, Jon Nolan & Good Co, North Village)
The collaboration with her band has helped to reshape and grow her songs, bringing in a dynamic nuance—a rich, rhythmic reframe.
