Potatohead People Announce New Album “Eat Your Heart Out” on Bastard Jazz, Share New Single “Last Nite” With Redman
Vancouver’s own Potatohead People announce their forthcoming album, Eat Your Heart Out, out May 10 on Bastard Jazz Recordings, and provide an early preview with the Redman-assisted single “Last Nite”.
“Last Nite” is the first single from the upcoming album and features bonafide hip-hop legend Redman, in top lyrical form atop the classic Rhodes-driven hip-hop vibe of the track. Showcasing the instrumental prowess and songwriting chops of the duo, the hook sung by long-time collaborator Kapok, is hazy and infectious while the groove rides out with horn flourishes, funky analog bass, and synth solos. Lyrically, the chorus touches on the day-to-day aspects of being in a relationship, while Red rides out the crazy business that had literally happened to him the night before.
Jumping off on the clean & musical production sensibilities that they have become heavily fetishized for over the last decade, the album finds the duo further stepping out from the shadow of the boards and stepping into the spotlight as vocalists, songwriters, players and musicians standing strong in their own respect.
