Albert Hammond Jr from The Strokes, this song is from his self titled album during the 5 year Strokes gap in which he made two albums the second being ‘Como te Llama’
Albert is my favourite Strokes solo project <3
I love his VOICE damn i would never have guessed that he could sing, his dad was a famous singer though :) He plays rhythm guitar with The Strokes, and I swear he is one of the most under rated guitarists but guyssss he is great. Give his other songs a listen
This is my most listened to song by him, makes me smile all fucking the time
“His solos tend to focus largely on more emotional, “bluesy”-type melodical work, and the guitar tends to have a cleaner, softer tone in comparison to Valensi’s (with a notable exception found in “Vision of Division”). He often holds his guitar in a high horizontal position, similar to Buddy Holly, which he says is so that he can dance better.”
Oh and he also co-wrote the song ‘Automatic Stop’ with Julian for Room on fire
amazinggggg <3
this deserves albert spam :)
