Iconic band California returns with a sun-soaked, soul-stirring EP “Good Vibrations.”

The California sound is alive and thriving once again as legendary musician Les Fradkin, alongside powerhouse collaborator Loretta Pieper Fradkin, reawakens the magic of rock, romance, and rhythm in their latest EP, “Good Vibrations”—a three-track sonic journey that radiates warmth, wonder, and irresistible musicality.

As a founding member of the iconic California rock outfit of the ‘70s and ‘80s, Les Fradkin made his mark with lush arrangements, striking melodies, and genre-defying performances. Now, joined by his wife, Loretta Pieper Fradkin, the duo steps back into the spotlight with an evolved sound that remains as charmingly beautiful and captivating as ever.

This title track, “Good Vibrations” is nothing short of euphoric—a musical surf ride through waves of funky grooves, indie rock shimmer, and choral harmonies that soar. Featuring cinematic basslines, bold guitar melodies, and Mellotron-infused flair, “Good Vibrations” is an anthem of feel-good freedom, with a chorus that refuses to leave your head. It’s a danceable, sunlit celebration of everything that makes California rock unforgettable.

A timeless ballad for the romantics at heart, “Come Fly to Fall in Love” is a love letter to new beginnings. Wrapped in clean, crisp production and tender vocal chemistry, this track invites listeners on a heart-opening flight toward connection, intimacy, and adventure. It’s proof that rock music can be as romantic as any genre—maybe even more.

Reggae undertones meet classic rock essence in “Island,” an upbeat escape into a dreamy world where love blossoms under sunlit skies. With lyrics that echo the joy of timeless love and the freedom of a perfect getaway, the track is an invitation to dance, dream, and disappear into paradise—if only for three and a half minutes.

Ride the wave. Feel the love. Catch the Good Vibrations.

With Les on vocals, guitars, piano, bass, Mellotron, and Ztar, and Loretta contributing stunning vocals and co-production, the duo reclaims and redefines their legacy with this stunning EP. “Good Vibrations” is a triumphant reminder of the power of melody, emotion, and chemistry—and it’s bound to leave audiences wanting more.

The EP “Good Vibrations” is available now on all major streaming platforms.
