The Mother Hips co-founder Greg Loiacono will release his solo debut on Friday. Songs From a Golden Dream features 11 new songs from Loiacono, who co-produced the album with David Simon-Baker (Los Lobos, Jack Johnson, ALO). The personnel includes Jackie Greene on Hammond organ, drummer Todd Roper (Cake, Chuck Prophet), bassist Scott Thunes (Frank Zappa, The Mother Hips, Fear) and Lefty Knight on pedal steel and sitar.  The album presents a variety of moods and textures, ranging from straight-ahead rock to Bakersfield country to more atmospheric expressions.

Today we offer the premiere stream of Songs From a Golden Dream, which is now available for pre-order via Loiacono’s website.

Loiacono will support the record with a series of dates in October which appear below the stream.
