LANY - Mama's Boy (Walmart Exclusive) - Translucent Blue Vinyl

Walmart Exclusive Translucent Blue Double Vinyl mama's boy is the third album from Los Angeles-based trio LANY and an intentional return to the band's Great Plain roots (Paul-the band's primary songwriter, lyricist and producer was born and raised in Oklahoma before moving with the band to L.A.) After finishing the last leg of the band's world tour behind Malibu Nights, Paul decamped to a studio in the country outside Nashville where he began working on an outline for mama's boy. Over those two weeks Paul began to put into words and music the cognitive dissonance between the L.A. persona he'd adopted over the band's rise and his Great Plains heritage. Someone asked me where I was from and somewhere, out of my spirit, I just said 'Man, I'm from Oklahoma!' It was a weird sense of pride, to be from the middle of nowhere, he says of the realization that he needed to look to the country's heartland for this album's inspiration. Thematically mama's boy is a sweeping tribute to home, heritage and Americana filled with songs that highlight what's symbolic of being an American kid today. LANY's breakthrough came with their 2017 self-titled debut, amassing an international fanbase. The statistics speak for themselves: LANY have a social media following of over 5 million, have sold over 500,000 tickets worldwide and played sold-out shows from L.A.'s Greek Theatre to London's Brixton Academy, with arena shows in major cities planned for this album.
