Artist description
Frank Fuller wants you to hear something.
But first, he wants you to get lost...
Did you ever, in a moment of desperation or despair, notice how the world suddenly opened and became beautiful? The way the rain sounded as you walked away from a newly-dead car. How lovely the sun looked, tangled in the hair of someone who suddenly wouldn't look you in the eye. Or you at 3 a.m. and turning in circles on an unfamiliar corner, moths tracing lazy arcs under streetlamps.
Or, conversely: have you ever experienced a joy so sublime that it stole the air from your lungs? A song, a road, a girl, a boy... Something that released you from gravity's grip, and in that second or minute or year you existed in a state of blissful agony. Because you were free and somewhere below you, The Universe was reaching up to set things back in order again. And for a time, you just didn't know where you were.
Maybe this happened, only to be remembered in the jackstraw thoughts before sleep and after. But you did remember. And behind everything: strange and beautiful music that clung to you like smoke as you sat up, suddenly awake and unsure of your surroundings.
If that moment of twofold experience has a location, an address, can claim some kind of statehood... that's where Frank Fuller is singing from.
This is personal music. And paradoxically, it has a hidden scope to it. Quiet passages suddenly expand outward and upward. Grace notes fall in pretty shards. A low, menacing voice splits and faces its plaintive twin across the left and right channels. A guitar shimmers like the air on an August morning...
This is music for the moment where you find yourself, lost.
Victor P. 'Nihil' Solephyn-Lowell, 30 Jan 2002
