ROLLING STONE PREVIEWS FLETCHER’S “DELICATE VISION [AND] FOLK POETRY” OF ‘YOU’VE GOT THE WRONG MAN,’ OUT OCT 7
Joe Fletcher will perform Friday at Way Over Yonder, presented by Newport Folk Festival, on the Carousel Stage at Santa Monica Pier at 6:40pm.
He joins an all-star bill featuring Lucinda Williams, The Lone Bellow,
Linda Perhacs, Jackson Browne, and many others at the two-day festival.
Last week, Rolling Stone previewed his new album ‘You’ve Got the Wrong Man’ (October 7)
and set at Americana Music Fest, saying, “With a narrative writing
style that eschews traditional structure in favor of twist-and-turn
tales, Joe Fletcher's songs are like the musical version of Lombard
Street: they wind and roll with steep changes, always ending with a
birds-eye view that suddenly organizes it all into one delicate vision.
The Rhode Islander-turned-Nashvillian's words flow more like folk poetry
than verse-chorus status quo, picking on a honky-tonk spirit with a Tom
Waits heart.”
Meanwhile, Paste Magazine premiered “I Never (Reprise),” which features a
chorus of his Nashville-based friends including John McCauley of Deer
Tick.
