Album Notes

A year in the making, Don’t Quit On Me contains 14 songs, including 13 new originals. Recorded entirely at The Cape Fear Studio, in Wilmington, NC, the combination of great writing, a world class band of musicians, and the talents of JK Loftin as engineer and producer make this CD worth the wait. The CD is upbeat, rocking, and contains lyrics that tell stories but also address universal themes we all face. Fortch is an observational writer – he looks at situations and then internalizes what he sees, resulting in a variety of diverse and interesting songs. Don’t Quit On Me adds to a catalogue which includes fictional stories, semi-autobiographical situations, and hard looks at relevant issues people experience in their lives and the emotions that go with those issues. Life experience and keen observation will provide the ingredients for future compositions as well.
