Singled Out: The Penny Serfs' lonely


. Today indie rockers The Penny Serfs lead vocalist and guitar player Michael Loy tells us about the song "lonely" from their brand new album "Like Eating Glass", which will be released on January 20th. Here is the story:

I wrote "lonely" the day after I returned from a six week tour. Most people don't know there is a massive adjustment period after a tour ends. It feels like the world is moving so slow and trying to reconnect with love ones becomes a very hard task. So after a few drinks, in my post tour depression madness, just kept singing the hook about being lonely.

The lyrics ended up being an ode to a lonely housewife and how hard it must be to have a husband travel like a musician or military personnel. After about an hour of circling my living room in my underwear strumming the guitar I finished the song.

It's a special song to me because I never want any mother, wife, sister or friend to ever feel that loneliness I feel coming home from work.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album right here!
