Foxton & Hastings new album, 'The Butterfly Effect', out now!


Product description

Bruce Foxton and Russell Hastings team up once again to release their third album together 'The Butterfly Effect'. Serving as the lead single from the album, the addictive 'Lula' is described by Hastings as 'A catchy pop song about a spoilt woman who seemingly has everything yet has nothing'. This standout track succeeds in capturing a summer vibe, thanks in part to a blistering saxophone solo from Tony 'Rico' Richardson. This vigour is apparent also on 'Two Of Us', which Hastings labels 'a nod to Quadrophenia'. The 'sha-la-la' repeats and loud, ringing guitars instantly takes you back to a time of mods vs rockers and heady sunny days in Brighton. The duo both name The Beatles as a huge influence on their work - no more is this apparent on the lively closing track 'Anything You Want' with its bouncy rhythm and psychedelic ending. Recording the vocals for this track unknowingly with covid, Hastings' voice nevertheless shines and brings the album to a rousing end.
