Gigi Palassis has a beautifully melancholy batch of songs for Lost Friend, this time accompanied by the wonderful voice of his sister, Irene Queen. “Echo Lane” is two brand new songs written and recorded in October as a reprieve as Irene is in a terrible fight with cancer. The other three songs are re-worked or re-mixed songs featuring the duo that were never properly released after the band L’Albatros dissolved. Irene’s voice is amazing and we want everyone to hear her and support her in her struggle against cancer. You can stream "Echo Lane" now from Poptek before the EP hits the big streamers next month.
