Lonely Boy by Frederick Julius
This soulful and harmony-saturated song cycle from Frederick Julius covers the vast terrain between hope and despair in ten vulnerable, often confessional tunes - each one a blend of dark and bright.
Lonely Boy was recorded and produced in Los Angeles by Mike Post at Moosecat Recording Co. and represents the second full-band effort from Frederick Julius.
Featuring the signature intricate vocal harmonies and lyrics of Matt Geiler, the multi-instrumental wizardry of Mike Post, and the return of the legendary Butch Norton on drums and percussion, Lonely Boy also incorporates the phenomenal sounds of:
Jason Goldstein - Piano, Keyboards, Melotron
Freddy Hernandez - Upright Bass
Andrew Gleason - Electric Guitar
Raymond Richards - Pedal Steel
Produced and mixed by Mike Post, Lonely Boy was mastered by Will Borza (Deftones, Andrew W.K.) at Borza Mastering in Los Osos, CA.
