Cameron Avery, touring bassist of Tame Impala and former member of Pond, has announced his debut solo album. Ripe Dreams, Pipe Dreams is out March 10 via Anti-. The record includes an extended version of the previously shared “C’est Toi.” Below, hear a new song from the album called “Wasted on Fidelity.” Scroll down for Avery’s statement on the album’s inspirations, as well as the tracklist and artwork.

I wanted to make something that sounded like the old records I love—Johnny Hartman, Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Sarah Vaughan, Etta James—the big band stuff with less metaphorical lyrics.

01 A Time and Place
02 Do You Know Me by Heart?
03 Dance With Me
04 Wasted on Fidelity
05 Big Town Girl
06 Disposable
07 The Cry of Captain Hollywood
08 Watch Me Take It Away
09 An Ever Jarring Moment
