Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Caccone form the comedic trio The Lonely Island. Known for their work on the classic hit show Saturday Night Live, the group has just released their debut album, Incredibad, now out on Universal Republic Records. The album contains the Internet and YouTube hit "D*** In A Box," along with other satirical musical and audio pieces featuring such notable artists as Natalie Portman, T-Pain, Norah Jones, and Jack Black.

As Samberg says, "Since junior high and high school, and then we all eventually moved in together, starting out, basically, doing joke music. Our first projects were always about mixing music with comedy." The results ended up with them winning an Emmy award for Outstanding Music and Lyrics for "D*** In A Box." And the album promises more of the same. Samberg continues, "We never concern ourselves with what happens after. We're grateful for all the success. We jumped at this opportunity because music has always been a big part of what we do. In a way, this album is our thank you for all that great musical inspiration … The mission statement of this album is to be funny - period! For us, the comedy always has to come first." If you get a chance to play with The Lonely Island, we want to hear about it! Send us an e-mail with the subject: "GWF – The Lonely Island." Be sure to include your Gamertag and home town. |
