Favorite New Artist - Jake Xerxes Fussell

[BrunoBlack]

Jake Xerxes Fussell Opened for Joan Shelley at a small local venue last night and stole the show. Do yourself a favor and find this guy. I found this clip of one of his other shows (long clip of full performance) that will give you an idea of his style.

Jake and I were a duo several years back, before he moved off to Mississippi (and then to NC). The guy can play.

He was mentored by the Georgia blues guitarist Precious Bryant, who sadly left us a while back.

He's got 2 CDs out on the Paradise of Bachelors label.
