Bruce Hornsby – 'Flicted CD

Bruce Hornsby – 'Flicted

“This record being the third in a trilogy of song collections mostly
based on film music I wrote for Spike Lee over the past few years,
I wanted to move to some new stylistic places and maybe make a
more upbeat record overall. We don’t get a ballad until #7, the
pandemic shut-down era piece “Days Ahead” ( a duet with Danielle
Haim). Lyrically the record is dotted with three Covid-related songs;
the aforementioned, “Tag” and the album opener “Sidelines” (a
duet with Ezra Koenig of Vampire Weekend), and otherwise ranges
far afield with the world of science again a recurring influence
(“Lidar” and “Point Omega”). The record also includes the first
cover song I’ve ever put on a studio release, a total reimagining
of Chuck Berry’s “Too Much Monkey Business.” The album title
“‘Flicted” relates to this strange time in which we live, when the
world is basically, well, ‘flicted!”
