Dominic Angella – Set Fire to the House / Smoking at the Lake House 7" PIAPTK - 374
Two songs about Fire and Houses from my old friend Dom, who I first met when he was on tour with Eric Slick’s band Lithuania. Dom now plays with Lucy Dacus. He just happened to be playing a solo show in NYC when last time I was there, and it was the first time I got to see what a truly great songwriter he was. So, we set a PIAPTK release in motion that night and it is finally coming to fruition.
Only 100 copies with both songs on one side of a red vinyl square!
"Dominic Angelella is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter who has been making music with friends and strangers for most of his life. Dominic cut his teeth in the Philadelphia music scene, playing guitar in bands like Drgn King, Lithuania, and Hop Along before discovering how much he liked to go on tour playing bass. He is maybe the only person in the world who has played on records by both Juicy J and mewithoutYou. He currently plays in Lucy Dacus's band and lives in Ireland with his loving wife and dog."
" 'Set Fire To The House/Smoking At The Lakehouse' was recorded as part of the Letterkenny Regional Cultural Centre's Sound Studio Residency that I completed in 2023. The dizzying array of synthesizers and strange instruments available to me during this residency had me rethinking the ways that I'd typically write songs, and I am overjoyed with the music that came as a result of this process. Many thanks to my dear buds at PIAPTK for giving these somewhat unorthodox songs for me a proper home."
