‘Fishin For Woos’ Album
Bowling For Soup have announced details of their 11th studio album “Fishin For Woos”.
The album is scheduled for release on April 26th and the band are currently putting the finishing touches to the video for lead single, “S-S-S-Saturday”.
Recorded at Valve Studios, Dallas, in late 2010, “Fishin For Woos” sees the Texan pop-rockers collaborating with a variety of guest performers and writers including long-time collaborator/producer Linus Dotson, Gabriel Mann (composer of the music for the hit TV comedy series Modern Family) and Letters To Cleo singer Kay Hanley, who features on the track “I’ve Never Done Anything Like This”. The album also finally sees the debut of the long-awaited studio version of the fan favourite “Guard My Heart”, a track written and sung by bassist Erik Chandler which has been one of the band’s most requested live songs since the band‘s first sell-out headline tour of the UK in 2002.
“Fishin For Woos” marks the first time in over 10 years that Bowling For Soup has been free to write, record and produce material entirely on their own terms, without the inevitable artistic restrictions that come with working alongside a major label.
“The freedom is amazing,” says front man Jaret Reddick. “If we want to release a new record every 6 months, we can. If we want to make a Christmas album, or remix album, or sing in a Disney project, we can. We don’t need to get anyone’s permission.”
Track-listing is as follows:
1. Let’s Pretend We’re Not In Love?
2. Girls In America?
3. S-S-S-Saturday?
4. What About Us?
5. Here’s Your Freakin’ Song?
6. This Ain’t My Day?
7. Smiley Face (It’s All Good)?
8. Turbulence?
9. I’ve Never Done Anything Like This?
10. Friends Chicks Guitars?
11. Guard My Heart (2010)?
12. Graduation Trip
“Fishin’ For Woos” is scheduled for worldwide release on April 26th.
