Buffalo Nichols—Fat Possum’s first solo blues signing in nearly 20 years—has announced the release of his self-titled debut album, due out on October 15th, 2021. The Austin, TX-based guitarist, songwriter, and vocalist has also shared lead single “Lost & Lonesome,” a tender, aching ballad. “‘Lost & Lonesome’ was inspired by years of traveling alone, wandering city streets looking for a place to call home maybe for a night, maybe forever,” explains Carl “Buffalo” Nichols. “It takes you back to those moments in life when you must leave home either physically or figuratively—going somewhere unfamiliar and on your own. The soundtrack to a wandering soul. An ode to loneliness. When you see a wandering soul, all you can do is wonder how they got there. This song gives a glimpse into the mind of that traveler looking for a friend and a place to call home.”
