GRAMMY® Award-nominated genre-defying songwriter, producer, podcast host, and guitarist extraordinaire Cory Wong has shared his new single, “Lisa Never Wanted to be Famous (Feat. Theo Katzman).” A masterful ballad in collaboration with Vulfpeck bandmate Theo Katzman, the track begins in hushed, melodic restraint before gradually drifting into gentle soul-funk, highlighted by crisp woodwind stabs and tightly staccato guitar and bass. The song is the fifth one released from Wong’s upcoming album, Lost In The Wonder, set to arrive on February 3, 2026. “Lisa Never Wanted To Be Famous (Feat. Theo Katzman)” is streaming everywhere now. An official music video is streaming now on YouTube.
