Jake Xerxes Fussell: Folk Musician in New York

About Jake Xerxes Fussell

Jake Xerxes Fussell is a rock and pop singer-songwriter whose work often draws on traditional song forms and plainspoken storytelling. In performance, he favors clarity over spectacle, letting small shifts in phrasing and guitar tone carry the drama. He has shared bills with artists such as Sam Amidon and Jana Horn, including a live set at Brooklyn’s Pioneer Works. The result is music that treats the past as material to be handled, not simply reproduced.
