The Fitzgerald

'The Fitzgerald', Richmond Fontaine's sixth studio recording, is a quiet departure from the raucous, visceral send-ups and live shows that got the band compared to the likes of the Replacements and Whiskeytown. Written when singer / songwriter, Willy Vlautin was holed up for two weeks in a Fitzgerald Casino hotel room in Reno, Nevada, the album is a stark collection of songs about the people who live in the shadows of a casino town. If you think Springsteen's 'Nebraska' as written by a young Tom Waits on a acoustic guitar, you'll be close.
