La Costa Perdida is the 8th studio release by the American alternative-music band Camper Van Beethoven. It was released on January 22, 2013, and contains 10 tracks. The lead-off single from the album, Northern California Girls, was released on January 1, 2013.
Production
According to the band, the album was influenced by their California roots, as well as the album Holland by The Beach Boys. The album features the four core CVB members: David Lowery on rhythm guitar and lead vocals, Jonathan Segel on violin, guitar, mandolin, keyboards and backing vocals, Victor Krummenacher on bass and baritone guitar, and Greg Lisher on lead guitar. Most of the drumming on the album is handled by studio drummer Michael Urbano, a former member of Lowery's other band Cracker, although former CVB drummer Chris Peterson also plays drums on Too High For The Love-In and the title track. The band's regular live drummer Frank Funaro, also a member of Cracker, does not appear on the album, although he is pictured in a band photograph.
