Life and Time

In August 2022, Joe Henry, a seasoned but unconventional songwriter, taught at a Nashville songwriting camp, feeling out of place among more commercially successful instructors. On the first night, he met fellow instructor Mike Reid - former NFL star and acclaimed songwriter. Despite Henry's initial awe, Reid immediately engaged him in a heartfelt conversation about poetry, sparking a deep connection. Months later, inspired by a rhyming couplet, Henry reached out to Reid with a note suggesting they write together. Reid's enthusiastic reply - 'Let's push off the dock and into the fog and see what we find' - led to an unexpected and organic collaboration. Henry sent lyrics; Reid responded with fully formed recordings. This seamless exchange repeated, producing a body of songs that felt inevitable and deeply shared, as if accessing something beyond either man's individual reach.
