Jake Xerxes Fussell :: The Old Beloved Path
Folk blues, patient guitar playing and a quietly worn voice.
Album Reviews
Records are followed back into the things that made them: rooms, instruments, damaged tape, field recordings, weather, family histories and particular stretches of land. Folk, ambient, experimental music, electronics and song meet here without a fixed hierarchy. Hwael listens closely to the music, and to everything that has entered the recording with it.
