Billy Fuller is a song writer, bass player and founding member of the band Beak>. Billy’s debut solo album Fragments is a sonic journey that spans time as it collects fragments of Billy creating alone in his home studio over the last few years. The songs not only inspire the visual, but they hypnotize, pulse and guide the listener through a hazy, atmospheric, and groovy motorik landscape. Fragments is available April 3rd via Invada Records, with two singles out now. Billy tells us how this record came to fruition, and he shares his process for compiling the songs, which were selected from a pool of 60+ pieces. He tells us why Fragments is a great example of Billy enjoying himself, we learn what his main goals in songwriting are, and he shares his approach to tracking songs. Joe and Billy discuss the making of the video for the single Three Blind Mice, Billy tells us why he celebrates owning the sole responsibility for the success of Fragments and Joe hedges on his usual critique of Billy’s artistic output.
