Fraudprophets (www.fraudprophets.com<\/a>), a collaboration between multi-instrumentalist and composer Sean Halley and A-list drummer Nate Morton (seen weekly on NBC\u2019s \u2018The Voice\u2019), are ecstatic to announce the release of their debut album \u2018Poptosis\u2019 on June 3, 2019. The new record seamlessly blends elements of jazz, pop, rock, country and 70\u2019s fusion into tunes that feel uniquely natural together, a result of the long-standing bond between Morton and Halley and their decades-long careers on stage and in the studio\u2026and the gin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


\u201cIt probably isn\u2019t the best way to go about it, but we randomly started this whole thing one night by drinking cocktails to a click track\u201d, said Morton. \u201cNot having a plan ended up being a real blessing, as the snippets of music that came out of that evening were free-spirited and fun, and they were infused with personality and our love for each other as musical dorks.\u201d Halley continues, \u201cNate and I love just about every kind of music, so nothing was off limits if it was a style we felt comfortable with. The same was true for the production – I like big-sounding records, so if we needed a ridiculous Beastie Boys-esque organ-and-drums breakdown for atune, I\u2019d have to go figure it out.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n


\u201cThe tones, the tunes and performances are stellar! It\u2019s the best new instrumental music I\u2019ve heard in ages!\u201d session guitar legend Michael Thompson (Babyface, David Foster, Backstreet Boys, Toni Braxton, etc)\u201c \u2026the new CD is fantastic and really musical. All of the players are phenomenal – I love the entire disc, but my favorite tune is \u2018Skronktastic\u2019\u201d. Drummer Greg Bissionette (David Lee Roth, Toto, Ringo Starr, Santana).\u201cThis album is a total success from start to finish. The sound quality is nothing short of amazing! Check out \u2018Poptosis\u2019 and become a believer.\u201d babysue.com<\/a> May 2019<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n


The band is currently putting together a musical unit to take \u2018Poptosis\u2019 to the next level live, and hope to play dates in the US, Japan and Europe in the coming year. The band keeps a presence on social media as time allows, so check out Instagram and Facebook for examples of their unique brand of musicality and good-natured humor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The album will be available for pre-sale on May 27 and fully released on June 3. Links for the major online retailers will be available at http:\/\/www.fraudprophets.com\/buy–poptosis-.html<\/a>when live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
