Tucson singer-songwriter Brian Lopez reunites with Scottish singer KT Tunstall on "Road to Avalon," a song he recorded during the pandemic. It's the second single off his forthcoming solo album "Tidal," due out this summer on the Los Angeles-based Cosmic Records. The single is available on most major download platforms on Tuesday, April 4. Lopez, who also is part of the popular Tucson cumbia rock band XIXA, toured North America and the UK with Tunstall in 2013 as part of her "Invisible Empire Crescent Moon" tour. He sang backing vocals on that studio album, which Tunstall recorded at Tucson's WaveLab Studios with Howe Gelb. Lopez said he and Tunstall worked remotely on the single during the COVID-19 pandemic, exchanging digital files as he made the record at home and from his downtown Dust & Stone Recording Studio.
