New Pool Boys 7" Release: The Stargazer + Breathing Your Air

 



Frankie and the Pool Boys are thrilled to announce the release of our new 7" single, distributed by Hi-Tide Recordings


Frankie and the Pool Boys wanted to release a single of new material in between their 2021 best-of "The Wet Season," and their upcoming, fourth, LP. The two instrumental songs on this single are brimming with romantic optimism. The Stargazers was inspired by a story of two lonely, earthbound dreamers who found each other by observing phenomena that happened billions of light years away. The clean, echoey, lead guitar pays homage to the style of Hank Marvin and the Shadows. Breathing Your Air is the soundtrack for intimate discovery, written during Covid times, when the very act of sharing a breath was defiant and dangerous. New fans will be surprised that instrumental music can evoke a vivid mood and deep feelings, and allow for their own memories to guide the songs' narrative. Longtime fans of Frankie and the Pool Boys will immediately recognize the attention to song craft, the Stratocaster tones, and the atmosphere that swirls between the ears. The two songs were recorded during a tour stop in Seattle when the band made time to work with producer and guitarist Evan Foster (The Sonics, Boss Martians) at his No-Count Studios.
