(PR) May 29th, 2009 will mark the release date of Walk Off the Earth's first 7 track installment of their new album, My Rock. Never wanting to sit still, the Burlington reggae rock threesome are breaking My Rock in two and releasing Part 1 on May 29th, and Part 2 later this year. Following up 2007's colorful Smooth Like Stone on a Beach, the band has recorded some of their most honest songs to date, while keeping in line with their party-all-the-time attitude that made their debut such a hit! Released on the bands own label, SlapDash Records, and recorded in their own studio (The Stoodz) the album is the sound of friendship, late nights, and hours of hard work finally ready for the public's ears.
Walk off the Earth will release the album with friends Mean Tangerine And Tall Guy Short Guy (members of the Johnstones) at the Reverb on May 29th (poster below). They'll then tour the new release heavily throughout the summer, including dates on the Vans Warped Tour. The band is well known for their experimental and captivating live sets, and have shared stages with many notable acts such as; Bedouin Soundclash, K-os, ill Scarlett, and more.
