'Flicted (LP)

'Flicted is the new studio album from award-winning pianist, singer, and songwriter Bruce Hornsby. Recorded last summer, the record is the follow up to Hornsby's acclaimed albums, 'Absolute Zero' and 'Non-Secure Connection'.

'Flicted completes a trilogy of song collections (Absolute Zero and Non-Secure Connection) based on film "cues" Hornsby composed for writer and director Spike Lee. This unique approach enables him to build upon and explore new stylistic techniques while collaborating with a wide variety of talented artists. On 'Flicted, Hornsby's goal was to make a more upbeat record overall, speaking on COVID-19 using the world of science as a recurring influence.

Co-produced by Hornsby and Tony Berg, the 12-track album features additional production work from Rechtshaid and Wayne Pooley. 'Flicted also features a duet with Danielle Haim on the pandemic shut-down era piece "Days Ahead" as well as further contributions from Rob Moose who provided several arrangements and performances individually and as a member of yMusic. The record also includes a reimagining of Chuck Berry's "Too Much Monkey Business", marking the first cover song to ever appear on Hornsby's studio releases.
