Lostboycrow Releases ORANGE JUICE And STARGAZING WITH PATRICK BATEMAN  Image

Los Angeles-based pop recording artist Lostboycrow releases his latest single "Orange Juice" and supporting track "Stargazing with Patrick Bateman" today via Sony's RED MUSIC. CLICK HERE to listen to the tracks that premiered on Atwood Magazine, debuted on 12 New Music Friday Spotify playlists worldwide, and are available on all digital streaming platforms now.

"'Orange Juice' and 'Stargazing' were both started with my good friend Brandon Hallam before the album destination of Santa Fe was ever conceptualized," Lostboycrow explains. "I like to think both songs are really just he and I celebrating each other's quirks as musicians -- exploring what the next chapter could be before any of the groundwork was laid."

"Lostboycrow's 'Orange Juice' and 'Stargazing with Patrick Bateman' capture feelings of elation and freedom, longing and vulnerability as the artist reconnects with himself, his past, and his present." -- Mitch Mosk, Editor-In-Chief, Atwood Magazine

Rife with natural creative energy and endless high desert inspiration, Santa Fe, New Mexico served as the backdrop for Lostboycrow's full-length debut album, Santa Fe, due this spring via Sony's RED MUSIC. It closes one chapter and opens another for the artist born Chris Blair. At the onset of his touring career in 2011, New Mexico welcomed him with open arms at cozy coffee houses across the state, and the singer later enchanted audiences and critics nationwide when he toured alongside VÉRITÉ, K. Flay, and Flor, garnering acclaim from news outlets like Billboard, NYLON, and Pigeons & Planes along the way.

The years since he first hosted those intimate gigs in Albuquerque set the stage for such transformation in the high desert. Revered for his rapturous voice, off-kilter R&B panache, pure alternative perception, and airtight songwriting, Lostboycrow emerged as the ultimate pop enigma. By 2018, his cumulative streams impressively tallied over 150 million highlighted by the success of "Powers," Stay A Little Longer," and "The Lost Boy" (feat. Skizzy Mars), which received placements on notable Spotify playlists New Music Friday, Indie Pop, and Pop Chillout, to name a few. The singer now boasts nearly 2 million monthly listeners and 57,000 subscribers on Spotify alone.

About Lostboycrow
Magic exists in certain places.

Under the shadow of national treasures a la the Puye Cliff Dwellings and Acoma Sky City, Santa Fe, NM remains steeped in a cross-section of American frontier lore. Not to mention, its vibrant arts scene would be home to the likes of Georgia O'Keeffe, among many others. Rife with natural creative energy and endless high desert inspiration, this magical little town served as the backdrop for Lostboycrow's 2018 full-length debut, Santa Fe [RED Music]. It closes one chapter and opens another for the artist born Chris Blair. At the onset of his touring career in 2011, New Mexico welcomed him with open arms at cozy coffee houses. Even further back, the first song he performed live in high school would be "Santa Fe" from the musical Newsies.

This confluence of serendipity inspired him to rent an Airbnb alongside a bunch of friends in January 2018 and create the album...

"I was already in love with the people and energy of New Mexico, and Santa Fe is so beautiful," he admits. "When it came time to do this record, I'd been longing to get back to my roots as a songwriter, building tunes on the acoustic guitar and being involved in every note, chord, line, lyric, and melody. I pivoted towards that. I got to go back to this place with a lot of new experiences. It became this meeting place between 'then' and 'now'. That's what the album is about. Santa Fe is a vehicle of exploring gratitude for where I am, who I am, and how I came to be Lostboycrow and ultimately do what I'm doing."
