Fulton Lights, the solo project of Andrew Spencer Goldman, returns from a seven-year absence with a great new EP entitled Well the Night Has Come.

Written and produced by Goldman and mixed by Grammy-nominated Tony Maimone (Pere Ubu, Book of Knots) at Studio G, the set emerges from a period of stagnation following the release of 2018’s Moonwalking into the Future.

“There were whole years here where I just found myself with song ideas piling up, but I couldn’t finish them,” he explains. “Or maybe I just wasn’t allowing myself to.”

Returning collaborator TJ Lipple of Aloha fame helped snap Goldman out of it.

“I was bitching about feeling stuck and he was having none of it,” Goldman says, calling his involvement “a welcome slap in the face from an old friend.”

The result is a sonically enriched set signifying Goldman’s growth as a songwriter and musician. Across these four songs, he works alongside such friends as former Q and Not U frontman John Davis on the Crazy Horse-gone-dub adventure “Hold That Thought” and Jean Cook (Ida, Waco Brothers, x-Beauty Pill) arranging strings for “Paloma Sadie May.”

For the EP’s first single, “These Notes Don’t Break,” Goldman shares production duties with Adam Ollendorff (Will Hoge, Kacey Musgraves, Lera Lynn). The song is cloaked in atmospheric pedal steel, baritone guitar, buzzing and pulsing with a hazy mystery that hints at Low or Jeff Tweedy.

“Resilience doesn’t come easy to me,” Goldman tells Rock & Roll Globe of the song, which you can hear below. “I have to work at it. For a long time the working title was just ‘Heavy’ — just a shorthand reference — but as I marinated on it, I realized the song isn’t just about being down and feeling heavy. It’s about sitting with it, owning it, and finding the way forward.”
