Following the release of last year's successful and critically acclaimed 'Dolenz Sings Nesmith' album, 7A Records announces the release of a brand new EP by Micky Dolenz featuring a further four Nesmith compositions, including the first ever release of 'Soul-Writer's Birthday'. Micky Dolenz is an American entertainer, best known for his role as the lead vocalist and drummer in the 1960s series The Monkees. As a recording group, The Monkees sold more than 65 million albums worldwide and outsold the Beatles and the Rolling Stones between 1967-1968. During the height of the pandemic, Micky Dolenz went into the studio to record his first solo album in nine years. He wanted to honour his friend and colleague Michael Nesmith and the recording sessions resulted in the critically acclaimed album, 'Dolenz Sings Nesmith'. Produced by Michael's son Christian Nesmith, who beautifully reimagined the songs and came up with fresh and completely new arrangements. Four songs from the sessions were kept back for this EP release, including the long-lost Nesmith composition, 'Soul-Writer's Birthday', a song Nesmith copyrighted in 1967, but never recorded. The EP is released on 10" coloured Blue vinyl limited pressing.
