Daughtry's New Album Due July 14, 2009
Rock band Daughtry will debut its new single "No Surprise" from the band's soon to be released second album, during American Idol 8 Top 4 Episode this Wednesday, May 6th. It is the first track from their 19 Recordings/RCA (Sony Music) July 14 release. Daughtry is currently in the studio finishing the yet to be titled album, which follows the band's Grammy nominated, quadruple-platinum debut.
"American Idol fans have been so loyal to this band, we wanted to give them the first listen to our new single," says singer Chris Daughtry.
Daughtry, bassist Josh Paul, drummer Joey Barnes, and guitarists Brian Craddock and Josh Steely recorded the new album's 10-plus songs in Los Angeles. Boasting a more gritty sound, the new album features a band sharpened by two years on the road, where they've graduated from clubs and theaters to opening arenas for Nickelback and Bon Jovi.
The new album follows the runaway success of Daughtry's 2006 debut, which scored three #1 songs and was the biggest-selling artist release for two years running. The accolades garnered by Daughtry include multiple wins at the American Music Awards, the World Music Awards and the Billboard Music Awards.
Active in the fight against global poverty and disease, Daughtry supports the ONE Campaign. Last year, the band performed at both political conventions to raise awareness for the ONE Campaign and encourage first-time voters.
Stay tuned for more on this.
