Video: Brandon Flowers Talks About His Love For Las Vegas
June 02, 2010
It could be any day now that we will hear the first single from The Killers' Brandon Flowers that is taken from his forthcoming solo album, titled "Flamingo." In the meantime, watch a recent television interview with the singer that is taken from a BBC documentary about the history and lure of Las Vegas.
Flowers talks passionately about growing up in the city - from working as a bell boy in one of the city's mega hotels to seeing Elvis photos everywhere to his fascination with Liberace's jackets. The video also includes some footage of Flowers working in the recording studio.
Las Vegas is the main inspiration for the singer's upcoming solo effort, and the way he talks about his beloved hometown in this interview may point to the sonic intensity and overall grand soundscape of the Stuart Priced produced album. In fact, it is rumored that a song called "Welcome To Fabulous Las Vegas" will be front and center on "Flamingo." Stay tuned. More very soon.
You can watch both parts of the interview after the jump.
