On the self-titled debut from Lake Nakoma, producer/composer Heath Fogg and singer/songwriter Colin Woltmann share a batch of songs touched with the magic of mutually illuminating collaboration. After crossing paths at a 2018 party hosted by Fogg’s Alabama Shakes bandmate Zac Cockrell, the two Alabama-based musicians teamed up for the recording and reimagining of several of Woltmann’s older songs, quickly discovering an undeniable chemistry that soon led to their creating new material together. Rooted in a potent alchemy of their distinct sensibilities—Woltmann’s penchant for finespun melodies and poetic introspection, Fogg’s imagination and ingenuity as a guitarist and producer—Lake Nakoma ultimately builds a dreamlike and endlessly shapeshifting sonic world around its down-to-earth lyrical reflection.
