While his bandmates lounge around the lower east side and admire their bank accounts, it seems Strokes background man Albert Hammond Jr. has been hard at work. The band's third most recognizeable member recently completed recording Como Te Llama, the follow up to last year's wonderfully surprising Yours To Keep, and is shooting for a June release. Hammond, also known for his stirring portrayal of "The Guy" in Dave Chappelle's Half Baked,surprised many, including the other Strokes, with the 2007 release of his first solo album. A light, dreamy, summertime excursion, Yours was critically endeared, leading to an impromptu tour following the album's release. This time around, it appears Hammond is anticipating some live sets.
