(MORGANVILLE, NJ) -- Diego Allessandro, the former front man of the two-time Asbury Music Award Top Americana Band nominee Lot 25,  announced on Instagram the release of three new cover singles. They are part of series that began in 2023 with "2023 Seasons" featuring a new single every season last year. This year "Seasons Part II: Falling For You" will feature a new, different, cover song released in sequence September, October and November 2024.

“It was fun doing covers for the first time last year,” Allessandro stated. “Last year I put out two original singles and two covers but I think going forward I’m gonna just do cover singles. I chose these songs because I just like them and the themes of love, passion and moments bleed through each song. I chose cover art that spoke to what I find in each song. It’s a celebration of love and a statement on what love and relationships should be. There’s so much out there on social media that’s negative about relationships and people are lonely. It’s time to heal and relearn what’s beautiful about love. At least I want to, being 40, I’m ready for the next chapters and excited about what comes next. I hope people pay a little closer attention to me and my work cause it’s gonna get fun and interesting and I’m so excited to share it with the world and the great state of New Jersey.” Further release announcements and comments will come via Allessandro’s social media @DiegoMusicNJ on Instagram, Facebook and TikTok.
