About
Mayfield's follow-up, Make My Head Sing, was a complete musical switch. Recorded at Nashville's Club Roar Studio with drummer/engineer Matt Martin and co-produced by husband Jesse Newport, the album was a scorching, electric rock & roll set. It was issued by ATO in April of 2014. She then returned to her more acoustic roots to record an appropriately solemn covers album of Elliott Smith songs with Seth Avett of the Avett Brothers titled Seth Avett & Jessica Lea Mayfield Sing Elliott Smith. The album was released in early 2015 and was accompanied by a tour on which the duo performed songs by Smith and shared influences including the Beatles and Bob Dylan, as well as their own material. Sticking with the indie rock complexion of Make My Head Sing, Mayfield's fourth solo album, Sorry Is Gone, was written during a separation from her husband and released in September 2017. In addition to production by John Agnello, it featured guests including Seth Avett and Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley. ~ Andrew Leahey, Rovi
