Some of the guys were like, Nick, youre gonna end up at a press conference like Dylan in 65: Whos The Fooler? I dont know, man, maybe its you! Maybe its me. Maybe Im becoming The Fooler right nowThe title of the sixth album from the Californian singer-songwriter is more than just the name of one of its dozen immaculate tracks. The Fooler is both a clue and a red herring. The Fooler is the observed and the observer, narrator and subject, truth and lie. The Fooler is the shadow and reflection of a city the artist knows sufficiently well to wander with his eyes closed, and a place which very possibly never even existed. The Fooler is not so much an unreliable narrator as a constantly shifting perspective. The Fooler is the new album by Nick Waterhouse, and its a lot.Many of the stories in the record come from that feeling of plasticity, says Waterhouse. What is memory? What is time? What is love between two human beings like in this imaginary city? Its Cubist. A listener sees the angles of my life and inexorably, my career reflected in this work from all sides at once. I started thinking again about my university days, about modernist writers like Virginia Woolf, Christopher Isherwood, Hart Crane, or Ford Maddox Ford; about memory and how it betrays you; what you can see and what you cant. Recorded by Mark Neill in Valdosta, Georgia, the album is a song-cycle of sorts, the arc of the album telling a tale of a city and its denizens.Theres a phase shift that occurred writing this record, says Waterhouse. I had a breakthrough in how to tell stories in songs. Its like an epiphany. I started realising how I could bend time in these words and a lot of the things that weave through the record. I have a perspective as a narrator now, instead of being the occupant of the songs.LOS SO-LOWSLos So-Lows are a sweet soul group from Oxnard, California.
