Brian Ray’s Breaking News!
I will be releasing 3 new singles throughout the summer starting with ‘When The Earth Was Round’, out now!
The second single, ‘Bad 4 U’ will drop in mid July.
The third single ‘Hold Me Close’ will be released on August 2, all part of my new full length album ‘My Town’, which is comprised of a selection of my previous solo releases with Wicked Cool Records, these three new singles, and a bonus track.
I’ve been having the best time recording for Stevie Van Zandt’s Wicked Cool Records, and have thoroughly enjoyed crafting music for all of you out there!
Many of you are familiar with Stevie for being Bruce Springsteen’s left hand man since the beginning, but he also owns Wicked Cool, my great record label, AND he runs the hottest radio station on the dial, The Underground Garage, all while also possessing an encyclopedic knowledge and enthusiasm for music.
I’m also thrilled to announce it that I will be releasing music videos for the new songs as well, starting with my first track.
There’s a fourth new song, ‘All The While’, on which Stevie asked me to do whatever I wanted, with no regard for the garage rock “singles” format.
This album track features Abe Laboriel, Jr on drums and choir, Adam McDougall on keys, Davey Faragher on bass, and me on guitars and vocals etc, recorded live together at East West Studios by the mighty Joe Zook.
I’m really looking forward to hearing how you guys like the new stuff over this hot, hot summer.
lf you’re not getting away for the summer, you can think of this as a vacation for your ears and a getaway for your mind.
‘My Town’ on Wicked Cool Records will be available for pre-order snow! We will be selling a limited number of signed copies of both the vinyl and the CD exclusively through my website. The three singles coming out over the summer will be streaming only, until the album arrives.
Also, check my website for some cool new merch drops over the summer as well.
Thank you so much for your time and attention.
Let’s rock out!
All my lovin’,
Brian Ray
