New Music From A Lull / “Pot Luck”
Please forgive the extended break on the site. Canada celebrated Simcoe Day yesterday, I felt like staying away from the blog and putting all my work aside.
While I had stepped away, I got an e-mail from A Lull‘s camp, with a new track to share called “Pot Luck”. The song comes from Confetti Reprise; a sort of outtakes EP from the bands’ full length album Confetti. When making the album, they choose only those songs that they were thoroughly satisfied with – and then realized that the album was 20 minutes too long. Emphasizing song flow over all other factors, four songs were eventually removed but Confetti Reprise gathers these extra pieces in one place. Look for that EP out Aug. 16th.
