Isaacs wrote Calvary for Levon Helms Grammy-winning album, Dirt Farmer, and cowrote songs like Heavens Pearls for Ollabelle, the cult-favorite Americana band he founded with five friends in the early 2000s. Listen to his own albums lead song, Losing You, to understand what Pop Matters describes when it writes, Dark-edged Americana dominates on Disappearing Man. These are not songs populated by handclaps, soaring choruses and banjo solos.
