Reared in Georgia and now settled in North Carolina, Jake Xerxes Fussell has established himself as a devoted listener and contemplative interpreter of a vast array of so-called folk songs, lovingly sourced from a personal store of favourites. On his latest album, When I?m Called ? his first LP for Fat Possum, and his first as a parent ? Fussell returns to a well of music that holds lifelong sentimental meaning, loosely contemplating the passage of time and the procession of life?s unexpected offerings.
The album was produced by James Elkington and mixed by Tucker Martine. In addition to Elkington, it features the playing of Ben Whiteley (The Weather Station), Joe Westerlund (Bon Iver, Califone) and others. Blake Mills contributes guitars on several tracks. Joan Shelley and Robin Holcomb provide backing vocals.
?Fussell is the rare contemporary to approach folk in its pure form, shunning self-penned compositions about bummer relationships to concentrate on material handed down from bygone, hardened times? ? The New Yorker
?[Fussell] is one of the great magpies of American song, collecting forgotten, tarnished gems with a folklorist?s zeal? his renditions aren?t so much cover versions as composites? ? The Guardian
?Maybe the leading interpreter of American folk music right now? ? Ann Powers, NPR
