Taste Test: Jacy James Anderson loses himself in the open road with ‘Just Ain’t Home’

The folk singer-songwriter depicts his innately wandering spirit.

Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones

Touring musicians have a wandering spirit by nature. A restlessness, born out of a desire to perform, creeps out of their skin. Folk singer-songwriter Jacy James Anderson cherishes his own status as a tumbleweed, unraveling his own fascination with the open road while culling his father’s perspective, too. “Just Ain’t Home” chugs along gravel-strewn highways and dusty back roads that offer up endless possibility and adventure. Even with a glimmer in his eye, there also comes with such a ramblin’ lifestyle an overwhelming melancholy. “I’m looking out the window / Jealous of the fallen snow / Feels like I gotta go, go go,” he sings.

“Just Ain’t Home” anchors Anderson’s new album, Blackout Poetry, out everywhere now.
