Fastball co-leaders Miles Zuniga and Tony Scalzo are in fine form, delivering stunning songwriting, Beatlesque charms and buoyant garage rock.
Platinum recording artists Fastball return with their Rykodisc debut Keep Your Wig On, their loosest and strongest collection yet.
Recorded at Viewpoint Studios in Austin, the bulk of the album was produced by Mike McCarthy (Spoon), with production contributions from Sheryl Crow songwriter Jeff Trott ("Our Misunderstanding") and Fountains of Wayne's Adam Schlesinger ("Someday," "Red Light"). The album was mixed by the legendary Bob Clearmountain.
On Keep Your Wig On, Fastball co-leaders Miles Zuniga and Tony Scalzo are in fine form, delivering stunning songwriting, Beatlesque charms and buoyant garage rock, with nods to soulful R&B ("Drifting Away"), British Invasion pop ("I Get High"), Dylanesque folk-rock ("Perfect World"), country honky-tonk ("Mercenary Girl") and the Latin feel that became one of the band's defining characteristics in their huge smash, "The Way" ("Falling Upstairs," "Red Light").
