Recording music in Quebec City
(December 5, 2020)
Quebec City duo Lunasam have just released a single, “The Redhead”, with musicians from Germany, the U.S and the UK. The single is available on all the streaming services through:
Lunasam are Bertrand and Robert, two brothers who have been recording music together since 1979 and are now focusing on producing. Their first 7 inch single was released in 1981, and this is their first new official offering since their self-titled indie CD in 2008. “The Redhead”, originally created by Bertrand, features vocals by British belter Dave Edwards. UK bassist Tony “Redfish” Gee also provided the bulk of the lyrics. Guitars are provided by Eric Rosenthal and Robert, the latter responsible for the instrumental break and synthesizer solos that follow. The bouncy song has a decidedly retro futuristic feel and mindset, with plenty of synths and surprises, and has been described as something The Cars would have loved to have penned in the late seventies.. Yet didn’t.
The credits for “The Redhead”:
Bertrand (Quebec City, Canada): song and theme, synths, arrangement, mix and production
Robert (Quebec City, Canada): break and last verse guitars, Wasp synth
Eric Rosenthal (Xenia, Ohio, USA): lead and rhythm guitars

Lyrics: Dave, Redfish, Bertrand

Lunasam “Risky Whiskey”
Risky Whiskey
If it makes you misty…
There’s no mystery,
To me, she’s ancient history.
Huffing clown, puffing clown,
Blow his ugly house down.
Homeless downtown Motown…
In a green hospital gown!
Purge the surge of courage,
Running, he’s on the verge,
the urge to diverge.
Resist the urge to merge
With the dirge!
Upwards, the dirigible…
Onwards I urge.
Nowhere bound,
Nearly drowned.
Rebound around:
Leper colony leprechaun.
Ragdoll crime,
Anytime and no time…
Any dime on the dime,
Anytime ragdoll time.
Cash in, drop out, hit the zone.
Think hard, eat a sandwich, buy a home.
Listen to “Gummy Bear” by Lunasam
Gummy bear
In my hair
Gummy bear
In the air
Gummy bear
Everywhere
Gummy bear heart
Gummy bear fear
The end is near
Gummy bear tears
Gummy Gum Gum Gum Gummy
Dummy dumb care bear
Listen to “The Mansion” by Lunasam
(dedicated with love and appreciation to Bruce Joyner)
In the mansion nobody mentions
In dimensions hitherto unfantomed
Where man shuns man
There is a great unknown collection
Terrible things happen there
That nobody knows about
Because it’s not spoken of
No one has written of this
Terrible abuse, who stands accused ?
No one
Does a Dracula Jesus live there?
Surely there if anywhere
But how could I know
Sitting here in my chair
Over the hill
Over the edge of the hedge
Drawbridge up
Over the moat
Walk the tightrope
A circle of hooded figures
Paroxysmal grimaces
Not a smile but a rictus
Hissing horrors conjured
Madness chaos conjoined
Is this the smoke of my imagination
Or is it real ?
Listen to the new song by Lunasam: « Drive Fast »
Drive Fast by Lunasam (lunasam.com)
(Did you guys plug in my microphone ?)
No-good questions get no-good answers
Keep it, peek it, speak it, say it and slay it
Somewhere between bad at everything and good for nothin’
Somewhere between bad at everything and good for nothin’
Gone, gone, young gun client
Gone, gone, young gun client
Gone, gone, young gun client
Gone, gone, young gun client
Oooh yeah !
Big bank makes a buck
The little guy is outta luck
Thunderstruck
You, the listener outside my window
The one I smashed fifteen minutes ago
Snakes in heat, yeah
Shedding skin like crazy
Bouncing back from a bad dream
On the rubber sheets
The bell swings
Ring a ling bing a ding a ding
The bell swings
Rama lama ding dong, Rama lama ding dong
Oooh !
All right !
Gone, gone, young gun client
Gone, gone, young gun client
Gone, gone, young gun client
Gone, gone, young gun client
Blackjack on the top
Dive to the bottom
Rise to the top
Drive fast
Beat the cop
Get away and make the drop
Oh yeah, and get a soda pop
Thinking, sinking, drinking
Drunken ship’s a-sinkin’
Wobbely gobbly bobbely gook
I got you with a mean left hook
Gone, gone, young gun client
Gone, gone, young gun client
Gone, gone, young gun client
Gone, gone, young gun client
Click here to listen to the new tune by Lunasam: “I didn’t do it”
I didn’t do it
No, no
I didn’t do it
No way, hey
It wasn’t me
I didn’t do it
No, no
I didn’t do it
Was busted before
Was like that when I found it
No wait
Maybe it works now
Nah, s’broke
Maybe pehaps
I didn’t do it
No, no
I didn’t do it
Used to be good
Great even
Now not so much
I didn’t do it
No, no
I didn’t do it
No way, hey
Is the battery dead?
Maybe
Got another one in the remote
No wait
I can go buy some
Pack of AA battery
Lend me a twenty?
No money?
Oh damn
It’s dead, man
Try playing with the wire
Sometimes that works
President was talkin’ on TV
I got distracted
It’s his fault
