Fisher’s own band of all-star musicians is becoming known as one the region’s best. His songwriting is full of vocal melodies and harmonies inspired by the country music he heard as a boy, but combines the instrumental textures, horns, and rhythms of soul, afro-beat, and rock to create a unique and exciting music.
