A WORLD OF MY OWN

Star-studded debut solo release from Los Angeles music veteran Guest appearances from members of The Bangles, The Smithereens, The Muffs, The Cowsills, Matthew Sweet, and more 13 tracks, including a cover of The Beatles Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown) mixed by Ed Stasium. LA music scene veteran steps out with his first solo release! Before touring with Dave Davies (The Kinks) and becoming bassist for The Bangles in 2008, Derrick Anderson (as part of The Andersons!) romped throughout Los Angeles from 1995-2004 flashing an energized, cheeky brand of pop/rock. But finally, its time for Derrick to arrive as a solo artist. A World Of My Own draws inspiration from the Cavern Club, Brill Building and Laurel Canyon, and the albums 13 songs feature guest performances from an array of kindred spirits. A World Of My Own opens with the upbeat Send Me Down a Sign and heavy-hitting Waiting For You, which features backing by The Smithereens (Pat Dinizio, Jim Babjak, Dennis Diken and Severo Jornacion). The sonic punch of Waiting For You is heightened by a panoramic mix from producer Ed Stasium. Renowned for his work with Ramones, The Smithereens and Talking Heads, Stasium mixed 2 additional tracks on A World of My Own: the party-driven Stop Messin About and a wild-and-woolly cover of The Beatles Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown). Happiness features stinging guitar lines by Matthew Sweet, while A Mothers Love showcases incomparably lush vocals by Bob, John, and Susan Cowsill. When I Was Your Man showcases Bangles guitarist Vicki Peterson and drummer Debbi Peterson, along with Kim Shattuck (The Muffs, The Pandoras) on guitar and vocals. The Bangles Susanna Hoffs joins the Peterson sisters for backing vocals on two other songs: Something New and Spring " the latter also reunites him with The Andersons!: guitarists Robbie Rist-Anderson and Wil OBrien-Anderson, and drummer Marc Joseph-Anderson. With a chance to share the entire range of his talents in his debut, full-length album, and the help of the great friends in his extended musical orbit, Anderson invites you to extend your landing gear, scan the horizon and explore A World of My Own.
