Cleveland, OH-based alt/psych-pop artists Radderall and Muzzy Fossa attempt to leave the club but get lost in the crowd on “Lana Lane.” Their collaborative concept album The Club Is Open is out now via Wax Mage Records . With the new project, the Radderall live outfit will bring to the stage the project’s expansive, surreal, synthy soundscapes that blur the line between irony and sincerity this month and next month in Ohio.
Named after the street Muzzy Fossa (Nathan Hunt) grew up on, “Lana Lane” recalls the innocence and freedom of childhood. On the record, the track intentionally sits near the end, the last step before the album’s characters return to their roots in “Planted.”
Radderall’s Zach Taneyhill shares, “We wrote the lyrics to the track with life and death in mind. ‘Only a breath away from Lana Lane, you’re only a step away from yesterday,’ to reflect the theme of duality across this record. If we die, where do we go? I don’t think anyone really knows, but if it was back to Lana Lane.. that would be nice.”
The Club Is Open is a conceptual journey built around a story of duality, and the search for a mythical venue called The Club: two characters navigating the tension between chasing short-term dopamine—through vanity, fleeting love, or ego—and pursuing something meaningful, like real love, honest connections, friendship, and self-discovery. Utilizing the naming convention R.A.M. (Radderall & Muzzy Fossa), the album frames a narrative of resilience and growth—symbolizing resurrection, transformation, and the ability to find renewal after destruction.
Radderall (Zach Taneyhill) & Muzzy Fossa (Nathan Hunt)’s work is theatrical and immersive yet deeply human, blending analog charm, R&B-inflected grooves, psych-pop storytelling, and vintage synth textures into a sound that is strange, surreal, and emotionally resonant. As Taneyhill describes it, the album is “a world unto itself—a place we built so we could get lost and maybe find a little meaning in the process.”
