Robbie Fulks:

Robbie Fulks opens his latest Compass Records album, Now Then, with a familiar declaration: “It’s time to make a change.” A GRAMMY-nominated staple of the Americana scene since the 1990s, Fulks has built a career on constant reinvention across 16 albums, performing everywhere from the Grand Ole Opry to the Hollywood Bowl.

Now Then captures that restless spirit with 12 songs that move from folk and country to jazz, power pop, and beyond, all shaped by the perspective of someone taking stock of the road behind and the road ahead. His lyrics land with a novelist’s focus: aging, love’s steady rhythm, family secrets, political borders, and the longing of youth.

The album features an impressive cast — Jenny Scheinman, Pete Thomas, Jay Bellerose, Paul Bryan, Wayne Horvitz, Duke Levine, Kevin Barry, and more — whose layered playing deepens each story. It’s also Fulks’ first full collection written since relocating to Los Angeles in 2019, reflecting new collaborations and new terrain.

A longtime innovator, Fulks first emerged from Chicago’s alt-country scene after early years in North Carolina, New York, and the bluegrass band Special Consensus. His catalog spans acclaimed solo albums, inventive genre experiments, collaborations with artists from Lucinda Williams to The Mekons, and songwriting covered by Sam Bush, Andrew Bird, the Old 97’s, and Hiss Golden Messenger.

Fulks lives in Los Angeles with his wife, actress Donna Jay Fulks.

Mark Erelli

Critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Mark Erelli is a Boston-based veteran of the folk and roots music scene, renowned for his emotional honesty, craftsmanship, and warmth. Erelli exploded out of the gate in 1999 when he won the prestigious Kerrville New Folk Award in the wake of his “auspicious debut” (Billboard), joining the ranks of previous honorees like Lyle Lovett and Nanci Griffith. More recently, Erelli penned the anti-gun violence song “By Degrees,” recorded in collaboration with Rosanne Cash, Sheryl Crow, and others, which garnered a nomination for Song of the Year at the 2019 Americana Honors and Awards. He followed this honor with a pair of records that drew comparisons to both Tom Petty and John Prine, as well as praise for their energy, grace, and resilience. Now, on his fourteenth solo album Spring Green, Erelli delivers his most cohesive and emotionally resonant work to date—a meditation on vulnerability, endurance, and renewal. 


Following 2023’s Lay Your Darkness Down, which chronicled his response to vision loss from retinitis pigmentosa, Spring Green finds Erelli in a place of hard-won peace. Co-produced with longtime collaborator Zachariah Hickman and tracked largely live over three days, the album feels fluid and organic—more watercolor painting than photographic snapshot. Its intimate sound recalls classic singer-songwriters like Jackson Browne and James Taylor, prioritizing storytelling and emotional clarity over stylistic showmanship.


By choosing to release Spring Green independently through Bandcamp and personally fulfilling each order, Erelli reaffirms his commitment to authentic connection over industry convention. The album stands as both an artistic statement and a survival guide—proof that true strength lies in softness, and that being wholly oneself is more than enough.h, Andrew Bird, the Old 97’s, and Hiss Golden Messenger.
