Signs To Be
Released On September 8th In North America
Los
Angeles, CA --- Jonny Lang’s brand new studio album, Signs, will
be released in North America on September 8th via SayRai / Concord
Records. The album (his sixth major label release) is his first in four
years. The European release for Signs will be on August 25 via Provogue
Records / Mascot Label Group.
The
new album is available to pre-order here: http://amazon.com/dp/B071FPWNS6. All pre-orders
will include both “Bitter End” and “Make It Move” as instant gratification
tracks.
This
morning, twenty-five new shows in North America have been added to Jonny’s
World Tour in support of Signs. Tickets for most of these shows
will go on sale this week. VIP tickets will be available starting this
Tuesday via www.jonnylang.com
Anyone
who originally discovered Jonny Lang through his searing instrumental work will
revel in the huge guitar tones and go for broke solos on Signs, while
those who have appreciated his growth as an honest and passionate songwriter
will find that honesty and passion unabated. Though he long ago left blues
purism behind, Lang has never abandoned its spirit of universal catharsis
through the relating of personal trials. Signs reaffirms his commitment
to the blues and the guitar without sacrificing the modern approach that has
made him such a singular artist.
It
is hard to believe that at only 36 years old Jonny Lang has already had a
successful career for two decades. Easier to believe when you learn he released
his first platinum record at 15—an age when many young people are just
beginning to play music. Lie to Me revealed a talent that transcended
the crop of blues prodigies floating around in the late Nineties. No flashy
re-hasher of classic blues licks, even at that early age Lang was a full-blown
artist with a style of his own. Also, setting Lang apart from the wunderkind
crowd was a 15-year-old voice that sounded like a weathered soul shouter.
Actual life experience was yet to come, and has been subsequently chronicled in
a series of five uniformly excellent recordings.
Since
the release of his debut album, Grammy Award winning Jonny Lang has built a
reputation as one of the best live performers and guitarists of his
generation. The path Lang has been on has brought him the opportunity to
support or perform with some of the most respected legends in music. He
has shared the stage with everyone from The Rolling Stones and B.B. King to
Aerosmith and Buddy Guy, who he continues to tour with today.
Jack
Broadbent
and Guthrie Brown have been confirmed as direct support on a majority of
the appearances scheduled for August through October in North America. Both
artists will appear solo. For appearances in Spokane on November 27
through January as announced below, support will be announced in the coming
weeks.
Guthrie
Brown is a Nashville transplant by way of Montana who began playing the guitar
at age six. By the age of seventeen, he left high school for Nashville to
pursue his dream of being a professional recording artist. Now at twenty-two
Guthrie has toured the country relentlessly, signed a publishing deal with BMG
and is currently recording his first full length album with GRAMMY® Award
winning producer, Jacquire King (Kings of Leon, Dawes, Of Monsters and Men,
James Bay). For more information http://www.guthriebrownmusic.com/.
Jack
Broadbent was hailed “The new master of the slide guitar” by the Montreux Jazz
Festival, and “The real thang” by the legendary Bootsy Collins. He
has spent the past year wowing international audiences with his unique blend
of virtuosic acoustic and slide guitar, and poignant folk and blues
inspired vocals. Born and raised in rural England, Jack grew up listening
to artists such as John Lee Hooker, Peter Green, Robert Johnson, Neil
Young and Joni Mitchell, to name a few. These legends of rock, blues, roots and
folk influenced his distinctive song writing, singing and performance
style, which have a depth and heart that defies strict musical genres.
Broadbent‘s performances exude a warmth, humor and energy that has electrified
audiences worldwide. For more detail: http://www.jackbroadbent.co.uk or https://www.facebook.com/JackBroadbentMusic.
