Fusebox Readies Sophomore Release
|
Fusebox is putting the final touches on their long-awaited follow-up to
2002's Lost In Worship. Their sophomore project, Once Again, will
be released by Elevate Records and Inpop Records on June 15, 2004.
"This is really my first album in a lot of ways because it’s
gotten to the point where I stand behind it all," notes lead singer Billy
Buchanan, who wrote or co-wrote seven of the album's ten songs. "There’s
something on the album for everyone."
Much of the album's versatility
can be traced to Fusebox’s tag team with a wide array of producers, including
Third Day’s Mac Powell, Otto Price, Quinlan, Joel Smallbone, Ainslie Grosser,
and Buchanan himself.
"My heart as a writer is to get the message out there in a way that can be
related to," says Buchanan. "From there I surrender it to God and let Him take
care of all the other details."
Marketing highlights for Once Again will include heavy touring, an
official street team, and extensive promotion at Christian radio. The
title track will be the first radio single from the project (penned by Matt
Redman).
Buchanan is currently touring with the rock opera
"!Hero", joining artists such as Rebecca St. James, Michael Tait, and
T-bone. Buchanan is reprising his role as "Kai", the evil priest, on the
second leg of the tour which will hit 19 markets in April and May, including
stops at Universal Ampitheatre in Los Angeles, and the Ryman Auditorium in
Nashvile. For more information, check out the official website at www.herouniverse.com.
Once
Again will be available June 15, 2004 in Christian book/music stores
nationwide from Elevate Records and Inpop Records, distributed by EMI Christian
Music Distribution.
