Alabama Shakes set to release album!


I have been eagerly awaiting the news on this album release and its just in..Alabama-based roots-rock quartet Alabama Shakes, are set to release its debut album, Boys & Girls, on April 10th via ATO Records, and you can listen to the first single "Hold On" below.

What is so darn special about this band?.... well they have a kick ass Singer-guitarist 'Brittany Howard' who's deeply emotive vocals are part of what has helped this band turn so many heads. 
We are not the only ones shouting out loud about this band either..Alabama Shakes have been getting plenty of outside encouragement, too. They're kicking off a series of live 7" releases from Jack White's Third Man Records with a two-song single, recorded last fall at Third Man's Nashville studio and arriving later this month. The band is set to make its TV debut on February 7 onConan, We reckon a Jools performance won't be too far after..
As for Boys & Girls, Alabama Shakes recorded the album at the Bomb Shelter in Nashville, producing and mixing it themselves. The crew promise "swampy dirty South rock, blues, and soul delivered with punk rock fervor." Check out the track list below, and visit Alabama Shakes' Facebook page for tour dates.
