The Biltmore Presents: Robert Schwartzman (Rooney) with The Relationship (Featuring Brian Bell of Weezer)

The Rooney frontman revels in everything from energetic synths to smooth guitars, while cleverly commenting on life and love. Most importantly, the album supports an important cause as all profits from album sales will go to benefit the Tibetan Healing Fund. Double Capricorn is dance rock for the thinking man and so much more.

In between touring with Rooney, Schwartzman began penning ideas for a solo project in 2007. Over the years, those ideas evolved and morphed drastically. During early 2011, he was free from his past record label and reeling from a recent breakup all at once. So he hunkered down in his personal studio with a clear vision of what he wanted to achieve musically. That vision became Double Capricorn.

"I wanted to go for it and completely embrace the idea of a solo record without anyone else's input," Schwartzman declares. "There were no label obligations, and I felt completely free. I decided to take ownership over it and put my best foot forward with music I really believed in. It's a true solo album in the respect that I played and produced everything."
