Stephanie Coleman

North Carolina’s Joseph Decosimo leans into the weird and psychedelic side of Old-time music on Fiery Gizzard. Traditional tunes are reimagined with a trusting, open-door policy for collaborators, which includes Stephanie Coleman, Matthew O’Connell, Jay Hammond and Andy Stack, blending fiddle and banjo with synth, electric guitar, and percussion. The result is an energetic, enchanting, and often joyful set that feels both timeless and otherworldly; it’s a truly delightful listen.

Watch North Carolina’s Joseph Decosimo, joined by Stephanie Coleman on fiddle, Matthew O’Connell on drums, and Jay Hammond on guitar, performing “Billy Button,” the vibrant final preview of his new album Fiery Gizzard, arriving August 15 via Dear Life Records. Filmed at Fuzzy Needle in Durham, NC, the session perfectly captures the song’s intimate and collaborative spirit.
