Punk-rooted folk singer Lenny Lashley is back with a new single and a new album. Lashley will release a new record on August 5 under the name Lenny Lashley's Gang Of One called Five Great Egrets through Omerta MIA. Lashley shares "It Got So Dark" along with the new album news.
“The album title came to me on a morning drive along the coast where I live,” Lashley says via press release. “I saw what I thought were five herons, but they were actually great egrets. Thematically, it’s the same as the rest of my solo material. All of the stuff that I write is directly related to my personal life in one way or another.”
Lashley's backing band features many notable Bostononians: Joe Sirios (The Mighty Mighty BossTones), Tim Brennan (Dropkick Murphys), Johnny Rioux (Street Dogs), C.J. Ramone (Ramones), Pete Steinkopf (The Bouncing Souls), Sam Bey (The Parlor Mob), Jared Hart (Mercy Union), and and others.
