The Wallflowers have announced their long-awaited new studio album Glad All
Over will be released on September 28, 2012 in Australia. The band’s new
single, “Reboot The Mission,” is a Clash-inspired track with an unmistakable
shuffle backbeat, featuring Mick Jones on vocals and guitar. The song is
available on iTunes now.
Recently wrapping recording in Nashville, TN at Easy Eye Sound studio, the
new album finds frontman Jakob Dylan joining original band members Greg
Richling (bass) and Rami Jaffee (keyboards), with Wallflowers’ longtime
guitarist Stuart Mathis and drummer Jack Irons (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pearl
Jam) rounding out the lineup. The album is being produced by Jay Joyce
(Emmylou Harris, Cage the Elephant) and mixed by Rich Costey (Bruce
Springsteen).
Formed in Los Angeles, The Wallflowers rose to fame with their 4x platinum
album Bringing Down The Horse, which featured four top charting singles
including “6th Avenue Heartache,” “One Headlight,” “The Difference,” and
“Three Marlenas.” The two-time Grammy Award winners went on to sell over 7
million records worldwide with a series of critically acclaimed albums
before going on hiatus in 2007. During the group’s break from recording,
Jakob Dylan released two solo albums, which also garnered significant
praise, 2008’s Seeing Things and 2010’s Women and Country.
