Back in July, I was quite sad to hear that Christopher Owens was leaving San Francisco indie outfit Girls. Though I wish Girls was simply on a break, I’m very much looking forward to Owens’ debut solo album, Lysandre. Described by Owens as “a coming of age story, a road trip story, a love story,” the record was was written, recorded, and sequenced as a complete narrative, inspired by the events of Girls’ first ever tour in the summer of 2008. Below, you can stream the album’s first two tracks — “Lysandre’s Theme” and “Here We Go”. Lysandre will be available Jan 15th on Fat Possum Records.
Tracklist:
1. Lysandre’s Theme
