Little Joy, Great Experience
My fall album
I literally adore this album.
Warmly Recommended.
Thanks to my friend Vincent for sharing.
Fabrizio Moretti interviewed by hollywoodinsider about this new project
EW: Little Joy is made up of you, your girlfriend, Binky, producer Noah Georgeson, and Los Hermanos guitarist Rodrigo Amarante. How did you guys hook up?
FABRIZIO MORETTI: My whole family lives in Brazil, and my brother kept sending me Rodrigo's music. One night, his band and mine were playing the same festival in Portugal and he came by to say hello. After the show, we stayed up the whole night by the side of the river in Lisbon, just chatting it up. Then Rodrigo came to work [in L.A.] with Devendra Banhart, and we started hooking up and making music. We met Binky around the same time, and we just started writing songs together. I had this bushel of songs I'd been saving for a long time, but they were just seeds. We developed them together and made them realistic ideas.
And you named this band after a bar?
[Laughs] Yeah, I used to live right up the street. It's the bar where we'd go to unwind. Binky was actually the one who said we should call the band Little Joy. I was like, "I don’t know," but then I came around to it.
Do you consider this a side project?
I don’t know. I have all my heart and love in it right now — this is my band. We’re hoping we’ll get the album out by November or some time in late fall.
What about the Strokes?
The plan is for us to start getting our ideas together in February. I can’t wait to see those guys and work on music with them, but right now all of my focus is on this. With me and [guitarist] Nick [Valensi] living in L.A., and everyone else in New York City, I feel a bit detached from the rest of the guys, but we keep in touch. It's weird, for ten years — since 1998 — we were together all the time.
There was a rumor a while back that the Strokes might work with producer Rick Rubin on the next record.
I'd love to work with Rick Rubin. He made some pretty seminal records. But it's like, before we have an idea, before there's a sketch done, we’re not going to choose the color.

baby im broke
Baby, I’m broke.
I don’t just mean money,
My batteries are dead and my engine’s stopped running.
Baby, I’m tired,
Past understanding,
How heartache and debt are my closest companions.
Baby, I’m broke,
Nothing to lose.
I want you to help me but baby, you’re cruel,
And talking to you,
I might as well throw my head back and howl at the moon,
Yeah, for all the good it’ll do.
Baby, I’m broke.
I feel so lonesome.
Love, money or time, I don’t mind, could I loan some?
But baby you’re strange,
Your heart’s all a flutter.
Your head’s in the sky but your mind’s in the gutter.
Baby, I’m broke.
The last train’s left town,
And I left my way in the lost and the found.
I’m thinking out loud.
I might as well throw my head back and shout at the clouds.
Yeah, for all the good it’ll do now.
For all the good it’ll do now.
For all the good it’ll do now.
Baby, I’m broke.
No use in crying.
I’ll stay sitting here, filling time ‘till I’m dying.
Baby, it’s hard.
Nothing I can do.
I’m just some poor fool who life dealt a bad hand to.
Baby I’m broke.
And one thing holds true.
There’s no gold for me, I was born to be blue.
For all of my money,
And all of my hopes,
Have gone up in smoke.
‘Cause baby I’m broke.
(lucky soul)
