After Two Years on the Road, Lou & The Midnight Bikers Deliver a Manifesto for a Borderless World

Out December 4, 2025 – Edison Gold Moulded Records

There are albums that entertain. Others that protest. Then there are those rare ones that ride. We Need Freedom Now! is not just the new album by Lou & The Midnight Bikers — it’s a dedication. A call. A gift. To the Harley-Davidson riders. To the brotherhood of the road. To all those who believe that freedom isn’t noise — it’s responsibility. Written, composed, and produced entirely by Grammy-recognized artist Louis Siciliano, the record is a muscular, soul-filled journey through the landscapes of Country Rock — but its horizon stretches far beyond genre. These seven tracks were made for riders, dreamers, and drifters who carry a deeper purpose beneath their leather: peace, unity, and joy.

Recorded in West Hollywood at MAGIC&UNIQUE Studios, the album opens with the title track We Need Freedom Now! — an unapologetic anthem for those who refuse to be caged, not by borders, not by systems, not by fear. It doesn’t shout. It speaks — with dirt on its boots and purpose in its bones.

Each song unfolds like a stretch of desert road: wide, raw, and unpredictable. In To Get to You, the journey becomes elemental — ice, fire, wind, and rain standing in for every obstacle love must pass through to survive. Other tracks simmer rather than explode, letting the instrumentation guide the story where words stop. And what instrumentation it is. Louis Siciliano, beyond his work as producer, lyricist and composer, performs electric and acoustic guitars, pedal steel guitar, dobro, organ, piano, and keyboards across the album — building each track not only as a songwriter, but as a craftsman of texture and space.

The voices — Willie Blackwood, Jesse Flint, Jeb Langford, Zack Monroe, and Siciliano himself — never preach. They confess. They chant. They whisper truths many have forgotten how to say.

This is an album dedicated to the global biker community. But not just for what they ride — for what they represent.

A world without borders. A world where brotherhood is stronger than division. Where PEACE is louder than propaganda. Where the ultimate JOY is to live fully — and help others do the same.

In that spirit, the music never rushes. It breathes. It dares to be still when needed. And it always returns to motion.

Behind the boards, Duggy McKansie brings a heartbeat to the kit, JJ Watson lays down a bassline as steady as asphalt under sun, and Siciliano — as multi-instrumentalist, arranger and soul of the project — layers every track with a composer’s sensitivity and a biker’s resolve.

The album was mixed and mastered with Louis Siciliano & Adam W. Rutherford, and released on Edison Gold Moulded Records, with global distribution via MAGIC&UNIQUE GROUP LTD.

It’s not a soundtrack for escape. It’s a hymn for belonging. For pushing forward together — across nations, languages, and open skies.

We Need Freedom Now! is available worldwide on Spotify and all digital platforms from December 4, 2025.
