Incoming: Freedy Johnston at the Bottleneck, December 26 + MP3

Former Lawrencian Freedy Johnston makes his annual return to town at the Bottleneck on December 26. Johnston scored a hit in the ’90s with his song “Bad Reputation,” from his 1994 Elektra album This Perfect World.

In honor of that show, which is sure to be well-attended (seriously — it’s fifteen bucks, a Saturday night, and you’ll be dying to get out of the house) we’ve got this song (“Don’t Fall in Love with a Lonely Girl”) from Johnston’s forthcoming album on Bar None Records, Rain on the City, due out January 12.

Look for an interview with Johnston from the Pitch as the show approaches, as well.
