Kony Cuts Straight to the Bone on 'Lonely, Lonely Girl'

Antony El Chaptini wrote 'Lonely, Lonely Girl' right after getting dumped, and the track wears that immediate sting on its sleeve. The Lebanese multi-instrumentalist laid down drum shells and rough rhythm parts at Studio Europe before hauling the project into his own space, tracking every instrument by hand, and handling the final mix himself. The payoff is a scrappy, no-frills garage rocker driven by jittery acoustic strumming and a vocal take that cracks in all the right places.
