Dana Fuchs stands at the crossroads of blues and rock, a fierce voice in modern roots music. With Borrowed Time, she digs into her southern rock upbringing, channeling the loud, guitar-driven sounds of her childhood in Wildwood, Florida.
Raised by an outspoken Irish-Catholic family, Fuchs never fit the conservative mold of her hometown. Music grounded her—whether through Baptist church soul or the gritty rock of The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and Lynyrd Skynyrd. It taught her that rock & roll wasn’t just the sound of the South; it was the sound of the world.
Borrowed Time shifts from personal storytelling to broader narratives. Tracks like “Nothing You Own” highlight the struggles of Cape Town’s poor, while “Call My Name” turns the experiences of two women in a Liberian refugee camp into a universal tale of love and survival. “Double Down on Wrong” opens the album with searing riffs, tackling political discord.
