Doors: 8PM / Show: 9PM / 21+ JAKE XERXES FUSSELL  Over six unique and very personal studio albums, Jake Xerxes Fussell has found his musicalfuture by reimagining, reorchestrating, and reunifying the past. By combining differenttraditional music sources in a completely original way, he routinely creates fresh works of artthat are at once rooted in tradition and ingeniously modern.   Recorded in North Carolina,The Old Beloved Pathwas mixed by producer Ben Whiteley, amember of the band The Weather Station who has also played bass on tour with Fussell.Friends Dominic Billett, Isa Burke, Wayne Horvitz, and Ken Whiteley add their instrumentalvoices to Fussell’s singular musical amalgams. As producer, Ben Whiteley fulfilled Fussell’sdesire to make an album that was more direct: a document of musicians playing live together ina room, dwelling less in atmospherics and musical elaboration. Working together, theyintentionally limited their palette - focusing less on all the things a song could be, and honing inon the essential. In the revelatory “Every Time I Go to Town,” the sprightly spider rhythms of“Boney,” a traditional tune rarely played let alone recorded, and his upbeat take on anothertraditional American classic, “Boll Weevil,” the overall approach is airier, focusing on buildingtextures and staying focused and direct in the art that sustains him. The songs Fussell chose forThe Old Beloved Pathare songs he has heard for years, but many ofthem felt newly illuminated - hitting different.“Traditional music gets more intense the older I get. The way that I see the world is throughthese songs. The world of traditional music has been such a gift to me. If nothing else, a lifelongcompanion. ”The Old Beloved Pathis in stores September 18th via Fat Possum Records
