Robert Lester Folsom

Robert Lester Folsom is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist from Georgia who released his first studio album, Music and Dreams, in 1976. Although it received some local attention upon its initial release, the record was circulated via private pressings and Folsom was unable to complete a follow-up.

It wasn’t until 2010, when the album was reissued by Anthology Recordings, that Folsom’s music reached far beyond the realm of crate diggers and collectors who had long ago assigned Music and Dreams a left-field legend status.

The same year, Anthology also launched their ongoing excavation and exploration of the Southern singer, songwriter, and psychedelic serviceman’s bountiful archives, welcoming a whole new generation of young listeners into the generous fold of Folsom’s folk rock wizardry.
