New Album Release

September 18, 2025

After a 20-year hiatus from his solo work, Christopher Maloney is releasing his third solo album entitled Lost And Found. …and he sounds like he’s got something to prove!

This powerhouse collection of new material from Sunset Records builds upon his singing and songwriting chops from his first two albums Control and The Terrors Of Intimacy.

Though officially a rock album, Lost And Found dips deep into Maloney’s reservoir of musical influences and delivers a wide range of energy and emotions. Songs like ‘Fall Into The Sky’ and ‘A Sad Sun Rising’ play to his strengths as a funk bassist with a fusion influence. The tunes ‘Lay Your Hands On Me’ and the epic, 12-minute instrumental overture of the album (amusingly titled ‘Afterture’) call upon Maloney’s more progressive rock tendencies.

For listeners eager to hear more of the emotionally-charged songs from Maloney’s earlier solo albums, songs like ‘Home’ , ’Come Alive’ and ‘Tag For A Tune’ truly satisfy. Good, old-fashioned rockers like ‘I Can’t Hold On’ and ‘Lost And Found’ prove that age hasn’t slowed him down one bit. And with quirky pop songs like ‘I Can’t Decide’ and ‘The Best That I Can’, this album proves Maloney can write the standard three-and-a-half minute hit while adding some unique and challenging musical moments.

“We’ve been eagerly awaiting this album for a long time, and we are NOT disappointed in what we’ve finally been given.” says James Halstead, president of Sunset Records. “It’s been understandable, considering all the other music-related projects he’s been working on. However, we couldn’t be happier with promoting this powerful new record. The videos he’s produced for each song are hilarious and wildly entertaining, which will go a long way in getting people to hear this new stuff.”

Overall, this is Maloney’s tightest album yet. Short, strong and packing a punch, Lost And Found promises to make up for lost time and reward his friends and fans the world over for the wait.
