It’s been a long road home for Big Machine Records artist Fisher Stevenson. Originally hailing from Richmond, VA, Stevenson endured a nomadic childhood, often moving to wherever his stepfather could find construction work. He left home at 16 to begin a musical odyssey that would finally lead him to where he now considers his artistic “home” -- Nashville’s Music Row.

After musical stints around the country – and a fateful songwriting workshop at Miles Copeland's castle in the South of France where he met future collaborator Radney Foster -- Stevenson founded the critically-acclaimed, “Orbisonic” country rock band Big Blue Hearts in which he served as front man and chief songwriter. Signing with Geffen Records, he worked with the best and the brightest in the business including industry veteran T-Bone Burnett who produced Big Blue Hearts’ first major label effort. Eventually Big Blue Hearts parted ways with Geffen and Stevenson reformed the band, independently producing a critically-acclaimed sophomore album which earned an enthusiastic endorsement by the legendary Rodney Crowell.

Three years later and solo, Stevenson’s creative journey brought him to Nashville and the local songwriting community. He soon signed a publishing deal and found himself “creatively charged by the quality and content of the songwriting” taking place in Nashville – a creative energy that inspired him to construct an emotionally-driven playlist of Modern Country Soul mixed with authentic singer-songwriter musicianship at its finest.

“I feel like I tapped into a goldmine here [in Nashville] of beautiful, meaningful and touching songs,” says Stevenson. “This album is upbeat and positive. . .songs that are from the heart about the heart, vulnerable and honest.”

Stevenson, who counts Keith Urban, Bruce Springsteen and Rodney Crowell among his major influences, later teamed up with noted producer Nathan Chapman for his Big Machine Records debut, which runs the gamut from the love-endeared ballad “Why Me” to the up-tempo rocker “No Tomorrow Here Tonight.”

The album also includes Stevenson’s collaboration with one of his biggest influences, Radney Foster, whom he credits as helping him find his way to Nashville. The two co-wrote the endearing, upbeat ballad “When Everything Falls Apart,” a heartfelt song about the steadfast bond between soul mates sticking by each other through the good times and the bad.

Indeed, the song is a tribute to Stevenson’s wife and her unfailing support throughout his own artistic journey “home” to Nashville’s music community and throughout the recording of his highly-anticipated solo debut on Big Machine Records which is, in Stevenson’s words, “the truest thing I’ve ever done in my life.”
