Part of one of PensEyeView’s favorite circles of musicians, Schuyler Fisk is our latest feature who is helping redefine the sound and chic of the true singer/songwriter. Her work and ties to other great artists (and PEV alums) such as Cary Brothers, and fellow Hotel Café Tour member, Joshua Radin are just some of the examples of the movement we’ve been in love with since beginning the site over two years ago.
Building up an impressive fan base (becoming one of the top indie artists on MySpace), Fisk’s attention grabbing yet pleasantly sweet voice and true songwriting ability has led to her debut release, “The Good Stuff.” The material paints a picture that is Schuyler Fisk – she says “When you listen to my songs on this record, you can see where I've been and what my life's been like and what I've gone through for the past few years. This record is very much me and exactly the record I wanted to make as my debut record.” It’s hard to describe the precise musical theme behind the collection, and Fisk can certainly tell you why… It covers all of her musical bases: “indie, folk, rock, pop, alt-country, blues, jazzy, beachy, singer/songwriter.” In other words – you’re going to appreciate something about this album, no matter who you are.
Fisk’s tunes have already been featured on Zach Braff’s film, “The Last Kiss” as well the Reese Witherspoon produced flick, “Penelope,” so chances are you’ve heard her before. And if you’re asking yourself, “Didn’t I see her on TV somewhere?” Chances are you’re a fan of “Orange County” and/or “One Tree Hill.” While it’s clear that Fisk is busy, she’ll also soon be hitting the road as well as dropping more records later this year. For now, check the schedule, check out “The Good Stuff” and get into the XXQ’s.
