The group, with composer-electric guitarist Steven Mackey and singer, actor, and librettist Rinde Eckert, premiered the concert-length work at the 2009 Ojai Music Festival in Southern California, a mecca for cutting-edge music enthusiasts.  The same forces perform on the new CD, which takes its title from the final song in the cycle. Lonely Motel's 11 songs are aboutself-delusion and, ultimately, the isolation created by the attachments we develop to our own fuzzy, personal views of reality,' eighth blackbird says. Musically, the songs contain subtle homages to Dowland, Mozart, Stravinsky, Piazzola, and The Beatles.'\u003cp\u003eSlide of Dog (5.29)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStare Prelude\/Overture (3.04)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDepending (5.18)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe Walks (7.00)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFog (6.00)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStare (6.03)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAddiction (3.59)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProcessional (3.47)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRunning Dog 2 (3.07)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGhosts (4.56)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLonely Motel (8.19)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55480182210945,"sku":"769321","price":17.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51l814WBD9L._SL1500_57875ab3-5a4e-4d10-a970-16ef704c45b6.jpg?v=1774758963","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/769321-1","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
