LaNasa Nomad

LaNasa Nomad is the music of Michael LaNasa.

“Count Me Out” is a ten-track rock album about survival without swagger. It moves from finding love, through losing it, through duty and accountability, into hearing your own voice for the first time, reaching across distance, defying everyone who counted you out, and finally turning outward to whoever’s listening.

Heavy guitars, clean-to-grit vocal contrast, dual-male and male-female duets, one odd-time section per song. Confessional but not weak. Defiant but not bitter. Hopeful but earned.

The title track draws on a life that had already been written off more than once: living in a car while working a corporate job, two divorces, two deployments to Iraq, and the loss of Army brothers. He never counted on talent or luck to keep him on his feet. He kept getting back up.

Elsewhere on the record he writes from military readiness measured in hours, from owning his part in the end of a marriage, and from the stun of hearing his own voice, at forty-six, inside a finished song for the first time. The album closes by turning outward, with the same invitation that opens its last song: if you want to know him, start here.
