Nude Descending Elevator
(released 2023)
“The new Puppets of Castro album is catchy philosophical pop that ranges from radio-friendly rockers to tunes that could be a Murakami short story set to music. “Nude Descending an Elevator” is sure to please hard core fans and newcomers alike.”
-Dan Bern
I, Nebulous
(released 2017)
I, Nebulous is the fourth studio album by singer/songwriter Andrew Lorand, whose mixture of humor, wit, and keen observation of the human condition is in full force here. Darryl Purpose, one of Americana/folk music’s most celebrated touring singer/songwriters, lends his unique vocals to four of the tracks, including “It’s A Good Thing.”
“There’s a map on her wall, and a dart in her hand
and where it lands we agree is where we’ll head to.
So she closes her eyes and she lets the dart fly
and it sails through the door to her bedroom.
So I say, let’s go there, the water’s safe, the weather’s fair
and we won’t have to change our money”
