LIE is the second Digital Single released from the Sentimental Dreams EP(2020).  The Chris Cruz tune is a live show favorite first released on
2008’s IN MY HEART(Delirium Records) now
re-recorded on a Tascam 8 Track with minimal overdubs and no autotune or pro-tools editing.

Inspired by Chris Isaak and the Violent Femmes, the simple recording is designed to emulate the live Duo performances featuring vocalist Rae Shirer.  The cover art features an original Pen Sketch by celebrated Fullerton Artist Janice D Monaco.  Janice also did the original art for the Rosary Beats CD EP(Persuasion 2019)

In a review of the Sentimental Dreams EP, Rock Blogger Robert Kinsler wrote of the track “…especially ambitious is their own “Lie” with bold harmonies that help propel the epic track on its enticing run.”
