Brushfire Fairytales is the name of the 2001 debut album by singer-songwriter Jack Johnson. The recording achieved a moderate degree of fame for Johnson, who has stated that he never intended to pursue a career in music, already having attended university for film studies. It features straightforward pop arrangements of Johnson's songs, primarily medium-paced acoustic-rock.
The album's primary musicians are: Jack Johnson (vocals/guitars/piano), Adam Topol (drums/percussion) and Merlo Podlewski (bass). It was produced by J. P. Plunier, recorded and mixed by Todd Burke, with assistant engineers Andrew Alekel & Chad Essig. It was recorded at Grandmaster Recorders, King Sound, and mastered by Dave Collins. Guests include Tommy Jordan (steel drums on "Flake") and Ben Harper (slide guitar on "Flake").
