Susanna Hoffs has been steadily releasing new music in recent years, most recently the covers albums Bright Lights and The Deep End. Her music-biz novel This Bird Has Flown is also being adapted into a movie. For her next project, the Bangles singer has unearthed some recordings that sat unreleased for a quarter of a century.
Hoffs recorded the tracks that became The Lost Record in her garage in 1999. The garage angle is an important one to Hoffs: "I love garage rock, many of my favorite songs were written in them, and I lived in garages during the 80s." She wrote the songs with friends including Bill Bottrell and Go-Go's members Charlotte Caffey and Jane Wiedlin and produced the album with Dan Schwartz. She previously shared a cover of Shawn Colvin's "I Don't Know Why," which serves as The Lost Record?tag=gum00-20 closing track. Today she releases the opener, "Under A Cloud," which was later recorded by the Bangles. Hear both tracks below.
