Jake Xerxes Fussell has a new album coming out via the Paradise of Bachelors label on Jan 27th. The self-titled LP is his debut release and was engineered by Mark Nevers and produced by William Tyler (solo, Lambchop) who also plays guitar on the the ten tracks. Other players on the record include Chris Scruggs (steel guitar, bass, fiddle: Bonnie “Prince” Billy, Marty Stuart), Brian Kotzur (drums: Silver Jews), and Hoot Hester (fiddle: Bill Monroe, Ray Charles). According to his bio Fussell “transmutes ten arcane folk and blues tunes into vibey cosmic laments and crooked riverine rambles” and based on ‘Star Girl’ this promises to be a great album.
