The singer, guitarist, and composer joined Simply Folk’s Stephanie Elkins over the phone to talk about the backstory of his impressive simultaneous release of three different albums. We are taken on a tour with Fishman through his love letters to New Orleans, his heartbreak story of Brooklyn, and his unique travels in Romania. A self-taught musician that knows no boundaries, Fishman crosses genres from folk, to jazz, to gypsy, to classical, and more.
