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 favorites. On his latest album, When I ’ m Called — his first LP for Fat Possum, and his first as a p arent — 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.
