Brian D’Addario has announced his debut solo album ‘Till the Morning’, set for release on 20th March via Headstack Records, a new label founded by The Lemon Twigs.
The eldest of the songwriting D’Addario duo has recorded the album alongside his brother Michael, who co-produced the record and provides harmony vocals, including co-lead vocals on two tracks. The release follows The Lemon Twigs’ 2023 album ‘Everything Harmony’ and 2024’s ‘A Dream Is All We Know’.
Speaking about the album’s title track, D’Addario says: “It’s a love song having to do with those fleeting moments when you grasp something real, amidst all the noise and propaganda. ‘The night is pitch black until the morning.’ Maybe things need to completely collapse before they get better.”
The album features two collaborations with LA poet Stephen Kalinich, known for his work with The Beach Boys. “I met Stephen in 2017 after playing some of our first shows in LA. I was such a fan of his work and was struck by his dynamism and personality. He was dressed in all bright orange; in his words ‘like a pumpkin!’” D’Addario explains. “For a while he was sending me poems and asking me to put music to them. When I read the words to ‘What You Are Is Beautiful’, it felt very musical and as soon I picked up the guitar it flowed easily. It was the same case about a year later when he sent ‘Song Of Everyone.’”
The album was recorded across multiple studios and states, with D’Addario describing it as “country baroque.” The record will be available on LP, CD, cassette and download formats.
The tracklist for ‘Till the Morning’ reads:
‘Till the Morning’ ‘Song of Everyone’ ‘Nothing On My Mind’ ‘One Day I’m Coming Home’ ‘Only To Ease My Mind’ ‘Flash in the Pan’ ‘Company’ ‘This Summer’ ‘What You Are Is Beautiful’ ‘Useless Tears’ ‘Spirit Without a Home’
