Artist's First Post-Phish Collection
Available In CD & DualDisc Editions
In Stores Tuesday, November 1
NEW YORK, Aug. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Columbia Records is set to release
Shine, the much-anticipated album of new music from the visionary
guitarist/singer/composer Trey Anastasio, on Tuesday, November 1.
Shine is Anastasio's first collection of new songs since the dissolution
of the artist's seminal rock band, Phish, in 2004 and is his first album for
Columbia Records. The album will be available as both a traditional CD and as
a DualDisc.
Produced and mixed by Brendan O'Brien (whose extensive resume ranges from
Bob Dylan, Neil Young, and Paul Westerberg to Pearl Jam and Rage Against The
Machine), Shine premieres 12 new studio recordings by Trey Anastasio (many of
them road-tested in the past year by Trey's touring ensemble, 70 Volt Parade).
O'Brien plays bass, keyboards and contributes background vocals to the album
and is joined on several tracks by legendary drummer Kenny Aronoff (John
Mellencamp, Bob Dylan, Iggy Pop)
All guitar parts and lead vocals on Shine are by Trey Anastasio, who, for
the first time on any of his albums (including the Phish catalog) is the
record's sole lyricist.
Tracks on Shine include: "Shine," "Tuesday," "Invisible," "Come As
Melody," "Air Said To Me," "Wherever You Find It," "Sweet Dreams Melinda" (an
older song, cowritten with Russ Lawton and Tony Markellis, heard here with new
lyrics and a fresh arrangement), "Love Is Freedom," "Sleep Again," "Spin,"
"Black," and "Love That Breaks All Lines."
The DualDisc edition of Shine will feature the album, in its entirety, on
the audio side. The DVD component will include the full album in PCM Stereo,
live footage of Trey's most recent concert (August 13, 2005) at Colorado's
fabled Red Rocks Amphitheatre, behind-the-scenes rehearsals at Red Rocks, and
an exclusive interview with Trey.
"It's a thrill to be on Columbia Records," said Trey on the eve of the
release of Shine. "Columbia has been home to a lot of my favorite artists --
like Bob Dylan, Miles Davis, and Bruce Springsteen -- and it feels great to be
working with people who really understand what I'm trying to do and allow me
the freedom to go in new musical directions. I'm very proud of the way Shine
has turned out and I hope everyone enjoys listening to it as much as we
enjoyed making it."
