The Outsider is Lars' new (double) album, a very big project with ten different singers and music that has taken a lot of time to complete. In a way it can be seen as a concept albums bt it's probably more like an official diary.
The guest singers: Elisa Pezzuto, Daphne Nisi, Johanna Mattsson, Göran Edman, Markku Kuikka, Conny Lind, Walle Wahlsten, Adrienn Antal, Niko Mattila. Lars is also handing vocals on some songs as well as providing backing vocals to most tracks.
Lars Eric Mattsson - The Outsider
Release date: November 19, 2021
Featuring these 10 singers:
Göran Edman, Conny Lind, Adrienn Antal, Daphne Nisi, Markku Kuikka, Niko Mattila, Johanna Mattsson, Walle Wahlsten, Elisa Pezzuti, Lars Eric Mattsson
This (double) album is made out of 19 tracks (almost 81 minutes!) of classic melodic hard rock with a progressive touch including a few ballads and three instrumentals. Lars says it’s his most well crafted and probably also most accessible work to date and that no song could be left out as that would make the picture of where he is at this moment in life incomplete. “It was a huge joy to work with these excellent singers and I tried to give everyone material that would be perfect for each individual”.
