Rich Arithmetic is back with another era-defying pop masterwork, PUSHBUTTON ROMANCE, which will be released on February 23. For more information, head over to his website, or downloads of the album can be purchased from Bandcamp here, or for those who prefer a physical product– the disc packaging and presentation is AMAZING, GRADE A, SUPERDELUXE, STUPENDOUS and worth the price of admission on it’s own– CD’s can be ordered from Kool Kat Music here.
“Tan All Over” is a stunning song and video of sexual awakening and nostalgia which Rich describes as, “a Brian Wilson-by-way-of-XTC song that makes up Part One of a 3-part “Teenage Hymn” on my new album PUSHBUTTON ROMANCE. Lyrically, the song is essentially told from the point of view of a young boy who discovers that the mom next door is the famous pin-up model Betty Page.”
