Lonely Crowd - By The Time You Read This (2026) [Hi-Res]

It took "only" 12 years (!), but now Lonely Crowd is finally ready with the sequel to the album that gave them four VG list hits and a third place on the "Billboard Norway Digital Song Chart”. The band is fronted by songwriter Stig Jakobsen (ex-Vampire State Building).

The album is titled By the Time You Read This and is being released by Apollon Records, whose boss, Robin Mortensen, also released the first single from Lonely Crowd's previous album - back then on Karisma Records. It will not be the only reunion - on the album they have once again included long-time Bowie and Iggy guitarist Kevin Armstrong. Other artists who will be featured on the album include Wholy Martin and jazz trumpeter Arve Henriksen, who is known for his collaboration with David Sylvian.
