Neotraditionalist Frank Fairfield, a virtuoso on banjo, fiddle and guitar, has just signed with NYC's roots-powered Tompkins Square label. He will be main support for Fleet Foxes on their US tour this fall.

 

The label has released a 3-song digital single, and a 7" single featuring Fairfield's take on traditional tunes "I've Always Been A Rambler" b/w "Darling Corey," samples of which can be heard at Fairfield's MySpace page (www.myspace.com/frankfairfield).

 

According to a spokesperson at the label, an album will follow in early 2009.
