Friend of the Substack, the amazing Lorenzo Landini, has an album coming out today. We’ve been listening to it on multiple devices around Castle Black this morning and I have to say, it’s really good. Definitely in the top ten percent of albums from people I know.1
Here’s a link to it on Bandcamp, where you can give it a listen and buy it for $7 :

And I am sure you can stream it on Spotify, but you really should find another way, because Spotify is garbage.2

Life has been coming at me the last few weeks. All in great ways, honestly, but it’s not just matches that have been coming “thick and fast,” as they keep saying repeatedly.
The nutso roadtrip of Brooklyn → Sabula, Iowa → Loretto, Kentucky from two weekends ago turned into Brooklyn → DC → Brooklyn (during that Carabao Cup final) last weekend. And that’s layering on top of it two work projects eating me alive. One with a client in Amsterdam. One with clients in California. HUZZAH
I got to get. Take care of yourself, and each other.
Happy Texas Independence Day, if you celebrate. And, if you do, remember the Republic of Texas was a failed 10 year experiment in extending chattel slavery that resulted in an entirely bankrupt government that spent the whole time trying to get the United States to annex it.

If you can say I actually know him. If not, it’s not among the best 10 percent of albums from people I don’t know, if I’m being honest.
This opinion is mine. I didn’t run it by Lorenzo.
Glad you're still alive, sir. Spurs beat City and lose to Burnley and Middlesborough. Enough said.
my dude!! thank you so much for this shout out, it really means a lot to me. I am so glad you’re digging it
1) funny you mentioned Spotify, beyond their cough dubious cough revenue “sharing,” they messed up the levels on some of the songs and I’m trying to get it sorted. sounds great everywhere else though
2) haven’t started to promote it yet, but doing a free album release show at the Brooklyn Center for Fiction at 7 pm on March 18th! would love it if you (and anyone else who is feeling it) came by!
3) I’m just gonna pretend you said “If not, it’s TOTALLY among the best 10 percent of albums from people I don’t know, if I’m being honest.” 😂
thanks again for the love brother 🙏🏻
