about

It's the 11th Annual Nicky Flowers Summer Single!!

Well, since I'm releasing it on Autumnal Equinox Eve (AEE), this year's single more or less celebrates the end of summer. Thankfully, AEE still counts as summer and this means I have gone a solid decade doing this specific yearly project. Thanks for listening to all my summer singles and I hope you stick around for more, as well as my new albums that should be coming out with more regularity :-)

Both the A-side and B-side were recorded and mixed directly in my Portastudio, a piece of equipment I now consider my wife. It has given me a brand new sound to layer on top of my tried-and-true sound.

The A-side this year is a jaunty bit of business. The B-side is a sketch of a loathsome creature. Enjoy!!!
