Former Bangles singer Susanna Hoffs has been building an excellent solo career, and she published a music-biz novel This Bird Has Flown which is also being adapted into a movie. Now, the singer-songwriter is releasing The Lost Record, which will present songs that remained unreleased for a quarter of a century. The release date is selt for October 18, 2024.
Susanna Hoffs recorded the tracks that became The Lost Record in her garage in 1999. The garage angle is an important one to Hoffs: “I love garage rock, many of my favorite songs were written in them, and I lived in garages during the 80s.”
She wrote the songs with friends including Bill Bottrell and Go-Go’s members Charlotte Caffey and Jane Wiedlin and produced the album with Dan Schwartz. She previously shared a cover of Shawn Colvin’s “I Don’t Know Why,” which serves as The Lost Record‘s closing track. Hoff’s first solo album, When You’re a Boy was released in 1991.
