Some were discovered 40 decades ago; others only in the last few years, but they all carry deep meaning for me.” What better way to tell a musician’s story than through the songs that formed them? You can piece together the life of William Fitzsimmons with these songs. Some recollect joyful moments at home as a kid, and others recall his high school days. A handful of tracks address heartbreak head-on without apology, while a few reflect his inclination to embrace youthful wonder and creativity. No matter what, his voice carries these words straight from the heart. Fitzsimmons’ bright guitar tones are complimented by string arrangements written and performed by friend and longtime collaborator, Abby Gundersen. Listeners are treated to stirring renditions of classics by the likes of Billy Joel (‘Vienna’), Bruce Springsteen (‘Streets of Philadelphia’), James Taylor (‘Fire & Rain’) and Peter Gabriel (‘In Your Eyes’), as well as indie gems from Radiohead (‘Weird Fishes’), JP Saxe (‘A Little Bit Yours’) and Manchester Orchestra (‘Sleeper 1972’). Also included are some unexpected offerings, like Jeremy Zucker’s ‘Scared’, Del Amitiri’s ‘Tell Her This’ and Go West’s ‘King of Wishful Thinking’.
