NEW YORK, NY | March 24, 2016 - From side project to primary mission, Rare Futures are forging a new sonic path through radical innovation. The experimental indie rock outfit fronted by multi-instrumentalist Matt Fazzi (ex Taking Back Sunday, Atlas Genius) has been working on their latest album for the better part of five years, and the time is finally right to share the project in full. "When I originally set out to make this record, I didn't expect it would take quite so long but life happened and the plan unintentionally morphed and changed several times along the way," explains Fazzi. "My intention is for This Is Your Brain On Love to be a reminder that we are responsible for writing the story of our own futures and creating our own happiness and there's no time like the present to go out and seek it."
Rare Futures is the embodiment of Fazzi's knowledge from all previous experiences, and those various influences are inherent throughout the band's latest genre-blending effort, This Is Your Brain On Love.The ambient and entrancing album is set to revitalize the music scene while resonating with both longtime fans and newcomers alike. Today, Rare Futures have teamed up with Diffuser to share this labor of love a full day ahead of its official release. Stream it here - http://diffuser.fm/exclusive-rare-futures-this-is-your-brain/
'This is Your Brain on Love' is an album inspired by searching for your soul purpose amidst the chaos and layers of life and the way we perceive and experience love. It's meant to be a journey of reflection upon lessons learned from the past, living more in the present moment, and taking control of the fate of your future. It's about recognizing your true passions and chasing after them." - Matt Fazzi

About Rare Futures: Rare Futures (formerly known as Happy Body Slow Brain) began as the brainchild of multi-instrumentalist Matt Fazzi during his tenure with San Francisco progressive-rock band Facing New York. It started as a side-project attempting to combine Fazzi's love of heavy rock groove, Motown soul, and 80's synthesizers in one harmonious package. After parting ways with Facing New York in early '08, Fazzi joined well-established rock group Taking Back Sunday for a stint that included a full-length album, New Again, and 2 live releases. Having continually pursued his own creative endeavors throughout, Fazzi left Taking Back Sunday in mid-2010 and immediately turned his full attention to Rare Futures. He brought the project to life by self-releasing an enchanting full-length album, 2010's Dreams of Water, a mellow collection of acoustic B-sides called the SLEEPY EP (2012), and the LIVE EP (2014). In support of truly embracing this project's potential, Rare Futures has performed alongside countless notable acts including The Fall of Troy, Glassjaw, Maps & Atlases, RX Bandits, The Matches, Night Verses, O'Brother, and Night Riots.
As a "hired gun," Fazzi has also played guitar and keyboards for bands such as Atlas Genius, The Dear Hunter, Into It Over It and A Great Big Pile of Leaves. Rare Futures was born out of the desire to use knowledge from all previous experiences to forge a new path bound to entice both newcomers and long time fans. The band has kept anticipation high for years with hints of a new album, and the time is finally right. With a new name and more determination than ever, Rare Futures will release their long awaited album, titled 'This Is Your Brain On Love,' on March 25, 2016 via In The Clouds Records and Fazzi's own Cerebral Music Group.
