Background
After releasing his debut album Psycho Jukebox in 2011, pictures emerged on Lawler's Facebook page, showing him in the studio. On January 13, 2012 Lawler stated that these sessions were for a second solo album, as posted on Lawler's website. The post also gave a small 3 track peek at the album. On 24 February 2012, Lawler announced on his website and Facebook that he had almost completed the album and that it was going to be titled Bright Night Flowers. It was later announced that he had completed the album, but it would be put to one side for the time being as he was recording a new album and focusing on with the Fratellis.
In a March 2018 interview with Wired Noise, Jon revealed that he had re-recorded Bright Night Flowers and had possibly changed his stance on releasing it. "Yeah, I did that over the summer. still needs to be mixed, and then I guess at some point, if somebody wants to release it, it’ll find its way out there." During October 2018, fans had noticed that his own website had been changed to a "Coming Soon" holding page. The Fratellis tweeted out on October 23, 2018 with a reactivated account for Jon Fratelli, with a date of October 30, hinting to an announcement of Bright Night Flowers is coming soon. On October 30 it was announced that Bright Night Flowers would release on February 15, 2019. Jon also released the album's title track and accompanying video.
