Old Fashioned Lover Boy conjures visions of Californian summer on new single L.A. - tune in now.
The songwriter s work fuses halcyon synth sounds with personal revelation, matching faint traces of nostalgia with something incredibly new. L.A. is the perfect encapsulation of this, with its hazy, twilight feel tapping into 80s cinema while also presenting a hard-won truth from his own life.
A rich, romantic return, the smooth R&B melodies - think Hall & Oates - are set against a feather-soft bed of synths.
Old Fashioned Lover Boy comments.
“There are places that evoke emotions capable of lingering for a long time. These are the places that become important, and their memory can save a relationship from crisis”, he explains. “It’s just a matter of remembering joyful moments spent there with the person you love.”

Adviser nomination: “Abby Pratt is extremely active and loyal to the theatre program at BHS. She has acted in numerous productions, and most recently, she was in the tech crew as the lighting person for the One Act. Auditions were extremely competitive for the One Act this year, and when I asked Abby if she was willing to be involved with the tech crew, instead of acting for this show, she was extremely gracious and accepted right away! Abby did a phenomenal job with the lights for the show, and when we moved onto sectionals, she had to alter all of her light cues for the second recording because another group had been at Tornstrom and rearranged her light cues. Abby does a wonderful job under pressure, and I am extremely proud of all the hard work she put into the One Act this year!”
