The Legendary Tigerman

Europe's Blues-Punk Superstar Releases New Album 'Misfit' in US and UK on London's Dirty Water Records - Seite 3

Paulo Furtado, on the concept and origins of 'Misfit': "I got inspired by Dave Richmond's book How To Disappear Completely and Never Be Found, said Paulo, and imagined the journey of a man called Misfit who wanted to lose himself in the desert and actually become nothing. Therefore, in May 2016, me and my image crew, we headed to Los Angeles and for twelve days we travelled until we had reached our final destination; Death Valley".

"Everyday during this journey, I would wake up at 6:30 am and write a new entry to the diary of this man," says Paulo. "Before going to sleep, I would always try to write a song. I wanted to write songs that were influenced by the desert, by its heat, by the suffering of this quest, and by this man."
