Seminal dream-pop act Butterfly Child is back after a 17 year gap.

After releasing a batch of lovely dream pop albums in the '90s, Butterfly Child went into a hibernation that lasted almost two decades. Though the band's leader and now sole member Joe Cassidy kept working on music in one form or another, it took until 2012 for another BC recording to be released. That single, "No Longer Living in Your Shadow," came about while Cassidy was working on a retrospective release and Dell'Orso label boss Guy Sirman asked about new stuff instead. The single led to the first Butterfly Child album in many years, 'Futures'.

Recorded alone by Cassidy in Los Angeles using the same brand of drum machine he made the first BC recording with, the album is a stunningly good addition to the band's CV. Still mining the rich vein of swirling, dreamy guitar pop he did originally, Cassidy's songwriting skills haven't diminished over time.
