Kings of Leon

  • RCA Records is excited to announce that Kings of Leon will release their highly anticipated fourth album, Only By The Night, on September 23, 2008. Only By The Night was recorded at Blackbird Studios in Nashville, TN, and was produced by Angelo Petraglia, Jacquire King and Kings of Leon.

    Only By The Night is a bold and expansive sonic statement that looks set to solidify Kings of Leon's position as one of the most important international acts of 2008 and beyond. It follows rapidly in the footsteps of the band's previous albums, Youth And Young Manhood, Aha Shake Heartbreak and Because Of The Times, all of which have quickly established them as one of the most prolific and acclaimed acts around.

    Following on from the end of 2007, which saw the band playing sold-out shows across America, including nights at Radio City Music Hall and the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, as well as a sold-out UK arena tour, Kings of Leon will play their biggest shows to date over the summer of 2008. The tour begins on 27 June at the world famous Glastonbury festival, where they headline the main Pyramid stage, before continuing with further headline appearances at Oxegen, T In The Park and V Festival and throughout Europe. On August 9, the band will play the All Points West Festival in Liberty State Park, in Jersey City, NJ.

The Whigs

  • The Whigs hails from Athens, Georgia. Once called "the best unsigned band in America" by Rolling Stone, the trio is now on Dave Matthews's ATO Records. After spending 2006 and half of 2007 on the road, the Whigs headed to Los Angeles in the summer of 2007 to craft their second record, “Mission Control.” Instead of the empty fraternity house used to record “Fat Lip,” the band holed up in Hollywood’s legendary Sunset Sound / The Sound Factory for two months. The studio, which has played host to rock artists such as the Doors, Janis Joplin, and Led Zeppelin provided the Whigs with a historic backdrop for the construction of their second record.
