LANNIE FLOWERS’ ‘Flavor of the Month’ Available Sept 30 on Vinyl With Exclusive Bonus CD

SpyderPop Records, in partnership with Big Stir Records, proudly make the announcement that fans of Texas guitar pop legend LANNIE FLOWERS and vinyl LPs alike have been eagerly awaiting… and it’s an even sweeter flavor than expected. LANNIE‘s acclaimed early 2022 release FLAVOR OF THE MONTH is arriving on vinyl September 30, in a deluxe package that includes an exclusive new CD featuring the original, completely different mixes of the album’s tracks. The FLAVOR OF THE MONTH LP/CD package is up for pre-sale now at www.bigstirrecords.com and most online music retailers now, and on record store shelves worldwide as of the street date, with the new single and video “Lost In A Daydream” signaling the highly anticipated arrival of album on wax.

The LP package itself is a thing of beauty, as expected from SpyderPop Records and their in-house designer Dan Zimmer: a gatefold jacket, with song notes from Lannie and the original artwork from all the singles inside, and more. The CD, entitled THE ORIGINAL MARCH TO HOME SINGLES COLLECTION, features the single mixes of 13 of the 14 Lannie Flowers tracks that became the new record (and one one exclusive Holiday-themed treat). These versions are true exclusives: the tracks will not be available on streaming services, and the CD is only available in the LP package!

As for the story behind the singles that came together to create Flavor of The Month (released on CD and Digital in February of 2022) in their all-new remixed versions, that’s a tale in itself, told in detail when the album bowed in CD and Digital forms this past February. What’s important is that FOTM is already one of the most rapturously reviewed records of the year.
