Lucero and Poet Charly Fasano To Release 7 Inch Record and Mutlimedia Book

Poet and artist Charly Fasano and Memphis, TN country act Lucero have announced plans to release an EP and multimedia book.  The combo will be titled Retrospect/ed and is due out on September 29, 2014 via Fast Geek Press.  The EP was produced by Lucero drummer Roy Berry and engineer Chris Scott.

Pre-orders are available here and here.

The disc features Fasano reading the poems “Gasoline Fumes” and “Teddy’s Bowling Alley” accompanied by the music of Lucero. In addition to the recordings, Fasano (a.k.a. “the city mouse”) has created a multimedia experience by creating twenty-two linocut block prints and two short films that illustrate and complement the poems throughout the book.

Retrospect/ed will be released as an illustrated book with a hand-numbered 7 inch record (500 pressed), a hand-pulled block print, and an mp3 download code with bonus tracks of Lucero and Fasano’s first EP. It will also be released as a pocket edition book that includes a mp3 download code (no 7 inch).
