OCTOBER 9TH, 2003 - DEBUT SINGLE WAS RELEASED
ā¦.AND 12 YEARS LATER š š¦·
Our debut single "He Can Go, You Can't Stay" was released today, way waaay back on October 9th, 2003. Originally released on Rainbow Quartz Records, it was available as a Maxi cd single, and a 7" vinyl record. There are just a few of the original 7" vinyl left in stock, head on over to our merch page to grab one before they are gone!
Also, another noteworthy "Singles-single" was released today; but on this date 8 years ago (2015) and on digital streaming services only!
August 26th - On this very same day, 20 YEARS AGO...
"Better Than Before" was released! The first, and only album that features the original four members, was recorded at Ghetto Recorders with Jim Diamond earlier that same year. Originally released on Rainbow Quartz Records, it's only been available on compact disc, and has been long out of print.
Would anyone like to have this on vinyl?? Maybe a short run with some extra outtakes, demos...
Anyways! I dusted off the old boombox and found my copy. Cheers to those few years we rocked and rolled...āļøš»šø

HELLO AGAIN ā¤ļø
The soon to be released āIncantationsā (2022) is the fifth and final album by The Singles. True to the band name, and poetically fitting as the final release, it was written and performed entirely by single founding member, Vincent Frederick, with a little help from his friend and producer, Taylor Locke (Rooney, Train).
The two began recording in April of 2021 at Lockeās Velveteen Laboratory studio in Los Angeles. They worked in a manner that wasted no time and involved little discussion, leaving the raw energy of the songs intact. Frederick set the tempo on guitar as Locke set the drum programming and off they went. In just three 5 hour sessions they had recorded what would be the foundation (and all the lead vocals) of the 10 songs that make up the album. Truly a āSinglesā record. Frederick played most of the instruments, with Locke adding musical support and some stellar backing vocals that shine without overpowering. The result is an album that captures the essence of Frederickās home demos, polished by Lockeās production. No live drums, and only one bass guitar line was recorded.
All things must come to an end, and āIncantationsā is the perfect send off for The Singles band. As the last of his heartache/heartbreak tunes are recorded, Vincent Frederick (now happily married) is free to move onward to his next musical adventure!
