Femme Fatale is releasing their long awaited second album, One More For The Road, on FnA Records this spring. The album was recorded back in 1989/'90 with the original band members and has never seen the light of day…until now. One More From The Road picks up right where the debut release left off.
In 1988, Femme Fatale made some big noise on radio and MTV with two very popular songs and videos - “Waiting For The Big One” and “Fallin’ In And Out Of Love” from their first release on MCA Records. There was a US tour with Cheap Trick and dates in the UK and heavy rotation for the videos.
MCA was ready for a second release from the band and had them writing with outside writers and rehearsing once they got back from the tour.
“Yeah, it was all really exciting to think we were going to get back in the studio since we had really cut our teeth out on the road,” says Lorraine Lewis – singer and songwriter for the band. “I was having writing sessions with some really great L.A. songwriters like Wes Arkeen (considered the 6th member of Guns N’ Roses who co-wrote “It’s So Easy” with Duff McKagan) and Jack Conrad (Heart, John Waite). There were big plans for this baby band and an industry buzz had been established primarily from Femme Fatale’s popular videos and their live shows.
“When we thought we had written a good number of songs we liked, we booked some time at a rehearsal studio in the valley to record our demos for the label,” says Lewis. “The boys had been working hard on arrangements & I was busy spending my time hanging out with Sunset Strip bands like D’ Molls & Poison, and Rock City Angels. We asked our friend Toby Wright, also from Albuquerque to come down to help with the recording.”
