Songbook
Lonely highways, faded dance halls, and quiet gazes—Songbook by Alec Soth distills the essence of small-town America into haunting, cinematic photographs. Like fragments of an untold story, each image hums with longing, connection, and the spaces in between, inviting viewers to find their own melodies in the silence.
Best known for his eerie depictions of desolate Americans in Broken Manual and Sleeping by the Mississippi, Soth has recently shifted his focus to communal rural living. Between 2012 and 2014, Soth took on the role of a small-town newspaper reporter, traveling from upstate New York to Silicon Valley to document the gatherings that bring people together—rallies, dances, festivals, and local celebrations. Through stark black-and-white images, Soth crafts a visual narrative that feels both timeless and deeply relevant, inviting viewers to reflect on what it truly means to belong.
