For all the lyrical and musical turnings Rodney takes you never once lose interest because you feel you are in safe hands and that the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow will be full. This is because Rodney serves the songs, finding out how they want to be presented and then doing just that. To put it simply, hes in it for the long haul, in the business of turning out instant classics.
SXSW /08
a gentle brand of folk music—gossamer-like songs lifted by a sympathetic five-piece combo and Mr. Fisher’s fragile voice...
... Mr. Fisher and his troupe have a humble, winning presence. At one point, he tried to move across the stage and inadvertently bumped into a trumpet at its player’s lips. At the song’s end, he shook the trumpet player’s hand. “We’re having fun,” he said to the audience. “Thanks for being so quiet.”
