MODERN TRAUMA
RELEASE DATE: 7/2/24
Hi friends - Chad here from The Big Lonesome. We are releasing our new record, Modern Trauma, and doing something potentially crazy. We’re going to link it right here and let you listen to it now. We’re not going to be releasing singles, we have no other songs in the docket, no plans to record again at the moment… Just this mass of songs, dropped in your lap.
My hope is that this record hits you all at once, and you listen to it… and you listen to it again and hear another layer. I hope its playing quietly in the background of your summer hangs and loudly in your car on your morning commute. I hope you party to these songs, and I hope you cry to some of these songs, but most of all, I hope you truly sit with these songs, and they offer something profound to you.
I don’t believe music and art is supposed to just fade as quickly as it came, faded by the algorithm. This record was painful as hell to make - I explored my families generational trauma, and all the stupid shit I do because of it.
So please, listen to it. Listen to it again. And if you like it, please share it with a friend.
