It was in his garden shed in Nashville, Tennessee, that Spencer Cullum found an escape from the noise of the world, from the spew of hatred and vitriol that has come to soundtrack the present day.
Here, in the musician’s makeshift recording studio, the discord was muted. The rush of life was stalled, even if just for a moment. It would be here that his Coin Collection 3 would come to life.
“There was a lot about reading news back home and reading news here that made me very frustrated,” says the British-born, Nashville-based singer, songwriter, and pedal steel savant. Holding the constant cycle of bad news up to the light, Cullum tried to create a narrative beyond the violence and greed.
Coin Collection 3, however, is not only doom and gloom. Throughout the making of the album, Cullum also found solace in the people around him. “There are songs about being happy with my life, living here in this garden with my wife and dogs and having this community helping us,” he shares.
That’s the Coin Collection series to a tee. This trilogy, born from a need for connection to the place Cullum is from and the influences that shaped who he is today, is just as much a platform for his talented circle as it is for his own genius.
This series has powered the last five years of Cullum’s solo career, and come 27th March, Coin Collection 3 will mark its final chapter. With newfound wisdom and direction in tow, Cullum feels at ease closing this chapter. Coin Collection 3 doesn’t mark the end of his solo endeavors; it only buttons up this chapter of discovering, gathering, and safekeeping.
