  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    These aren't cased in a conventional sense, but wrapped in plastic and sandwiched between quality printed cardstock. As low-cost, low-impact, and eco-friendly as I could get. Professionally printed and burned, so likely a lot nicer than the home-brewed ones I was putting out before.

lyrics

If my guitar is a longbow,
My strap is the bowstring,
Then I am the arrow,
(I’m the arrow,)
And I have been firing for years
just to see if I land.
Far from here

If you were the great tree
Then my mistakes are the dirt,
And I am the apple,
(I’m the apple)
And I have been staring into the lake,
looking down to see my own fall from grace,
and just, how far I'll fall.

I built that damn gazebo
In the sunshine with my powertools
And I read the instructions,
(the instructions)
But that hook only holds fifty pounds,
I’ll have to make some changes to myself,
Or find a different place
To hang

*****

Ah yes, the space in the notes where I apologize; well this time I once again didn’t rip anyone off (aside from the parody art as usual.) So I’ve decided to change this apology space to a ‘thank you’ space. Frankly Lost would like to thank Rachael, Johnny & Tiff (congratulations!), Brooke, Reggie, Prettyboy, Apes of the State, Avery, Chuck, the OH7! family, Zoe, MWC, and the Bees. We apologize for any confusion or anyone we’ve missed.

about

Frankly Lost Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Frankly Lost is a rogue personality fronting a slowly-ever-growing band of misfits making highly energetic and earnest DIY music that feels somewhere between fringey singer-songwriter Art and ska-punk. Following in the tradition of American Folk music, their works are musically and lyrically simple, charged with emotion, and inspired by acts such as Erik Petersen’s Mischief Brew and Frank Turner. ... more
