Andy Frasco & The U.N. - Growing Pains [Digipak]

Andy Frasco & The U.N. are back with 'Growing Pains', their landmark 10th studio album and first full-length release since 2023's 'L'Optimist'. Blending indie, folk, rock, and alternative influences, the album showcases Andy Frasco's growth as both a songwriter and band frontman. Known for his infectious charisma and wild, kaleidoscopic live shows, Andy is a cross between John Belushi's "Joliet" Jake Blues and Jimmy Buffett, with a dash of Springsteen. As a tunesmith, Frasco's writing is a celebration of inclusivity, self-expression, and the wisdom learned (and earned) from a 15-year journey so far on the road- his evolution is as much about the music as it is about the life lessons along the way. "I came into this life wanting to write songs," says Frasco, and on this triumphant LP, he does just that-delivering anthems that are both heartfelt and irresistibly catchy.
