The follow-up album to 2021's Hunger Attack, I Wrote This Album Tomorrow is full of fun and funny bops that will get stuck in your head in the best ways.

Liam was 11-years-old during the process of making this album, and wrote and performed nearly every note — including keys, guitar, and bass.

Dad Lex writes the lyrics, Liam composes, and the two record together. This new album includes songs about time travel, video games, vacations, and — of course — waking up.

Frequently asked questions

Did Liam really write these songs? Is he really eleven?
Yes. Liam was really eleven during the recordings (throughout 2022). Liam's dad Lex wrote the lyrics, and would hand those off to Liam, who would then put to music. Liam typically composes on the piano.

There's one song ("Books") that Lex wrote the core music for, but Liam added the higher piano parts and beautiful solo. On some tracks — the ones that Lex sings solo — Lex wrote the melody line on top of the music Liam composed. Lex and Liam wrote "Wake Up" together, and that was really, really fun. They should do that more.

What instruments does Liam play?
Liam plays the piano, the bass guitar, the saxophone, and the drums. On this album, many tracks were recorded first from an electric piano via MIDI, into GarageBand on an iPad. Most tracks also include live bass played by Liam, and a few also feature live guitar from Liam, too.

How did you technically make the album?
As per the above, Liam typically records from an electric piano or from instruments plugged into a digital interface that feed into GarageBand on an iPad. He sometimes uses the on-screen instruments instead. Then we import the full GarageBand project into Logic Pro on a Mac. We record vocals using a couple different USB microphones, sometimes on the iPad, sometimes on the Mac. We mix and master in Logic and Fission.
