The Great Book Of John have released their new single "Dark Star" which gives fans a preview of their new studio album that is expected to be released early next year. We break from our traditional Singled Out formula to provide a little extra background information about the song and the album: While on tour the band spent two days at Premier Studios in New York with Paul Logus (whose credits include Blondie and Anthrax.) The marathon sessions yielded an album's worth of material including the new single 'Dark Star.' The Great Book Of John's Bekah Fox had this to say about the session:
We were right in the middle of tour so us being tight as a band is an understatement. We were also really excited about laying down the new songs that we'd been playing on stage. Something about having them and not being able to share them outside of performances can really start to wear on you. We love Paul and were over the top when we found out we would have this time with him. And then our producer, Jeffrey Cain (Remy Zero, Isidore) came, too. We hung out, played music together, and got to watch two masterminds have fun behind the glass.
Paul will be coming to work with us in Birmingham to artfully toy around with some other possibilities before we release the newest album. But Dark Star is a perfect example of where we are as a band and what we look forward to giving to those who are interested.
Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the band and the album right here!
