Official press release:
Acclaimed Canadian hard rock trio Danko Jones – who have shared the stage with rock legends such as Guns N’ Roses, Motörhead, Ozzy Osbourne and The Rolling Stones, and whose namesake front man contributed guest vocals on Volbeat’s recent #1 Active Rock hit “Black Rose” – has released a new single, “We’re Crazy”. The song, produced by GGGarth Richardson (Rage Against The Machine, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Biffy Clyro, Rise Against), can be streamed on Metal Injection, Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube and other digital platforms.
“We’re Crazy” marks the first taste of Danko Jones’ forthcoming, as-yet-untitled new album, which will be released in the spring via M-Theory Audio (U.S.), Rise Above (UK), Indica (Canada, AU, NZ) and AFM (rest of the world). The track – which the group has performed live in recent months during appearances at major European festivals such as Summer Breeze and Copenhell – was recorded with Richardson earlier this year. The group is currently tracking additional material with the famed producer at The Farm Studios in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Jones said:
“We’ve got songs that are kicking my ass so hard, I can’t wait to lay them down. Whip out the Prep H, ’cause we’re all out of bubble gum!”
Danko Jones – who will tour Europe and the United Kingdom from Nov. 14 through Dec. 15 – has also confirmed their first tour of 2019, which will see the group headline throughout the Western United States with support from Nashville Pussy and Prima Donna. Tickets are on sale now. A complete list of the band’s upcoming concerts appears below.
