Pony Tales [CD] (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

Rome 56 return with their eighth album Pony Tales - twelve vivid stories that stretch from the future-gazing drive of "One Way Ticket" to the sci-fi edge of "Last Man Standing." Recorded in New York and Amsterdam, the album blends Knopfler-inspired guitars, lush keyboards, and Arthur Lamonica's Costello-like vocal bite into a collection that's both immediate and reflective. Packaged in a digipak with a 12-page lyric booklet, Pony Tales proves once again that Arthur - best known for his work with CBGB favorites The Shirts - still crafts songs full of melody, character, and staying power.
