Not long following the release of Girls’ second album Dad, Son, Holy Ghost, singer Christopher Owens announced that he was leaving the indie duo in search of a solo career. Dealing with a lighter make of music, he started chasing the spirits of ‘70s AM pop, integrating flutes and traditional acoustic guitar in his recordings. In 2012, Excess fat Possum authorized Owens to a documenting offer and in early 2013 released his recording Lysandre, an extremely personal debut that chronicled Owens’ troubles coping with achievement and a romance he previously while touring with Ladies. One year later on in Sept 2014, he shipped his follow-up single effort A FRESH Testament.
