I'm thrilled to announce that my new album "Bliss Avenue" will be released worldwide this July on Ruf Records!
Here's an early review by Henry Yates from Classic Rock Magazine:
"All Dana Fuchs has to do is sing. All it takes is one note from those
celebrated lips and clocks stop, crowds snap to attention, hearts beat like
bass drums and neck-hair tingles. It’s often been said that the Florida-born
front-woman could sing the phone directory and still hold her listeners
spellbound. True enough, but in 2013,
when Dana applies that extraordinary voice to the classic songs from third
album Bliss Avenue, you’ll realize that you’re in the presence of
once-a-generation greatness."
Here's a link to a "Bliss Avenue" promo tease featuring the title track with some never-before-seen performance footage and an interview excerpt from iconic and legendary Q104.3 classic rock DJ, Ken Dashow.
The official US & European Bliss Avenue Tour is about to begin and I'm so excited to announce the kickoff with a some great upcoming Northeast shows starting THIS SATURDAY May 11th at Stage One in Fairfield, CT. There are only a handful of tickets left so don't wait until Saturday!
Next stop is another one of my favorite rooms to play: Bridge Street Live in Collinsville, CT on May 25th. Beautiful room for music!
Then on June 8th I'm on the double bill of the summer with my Soul Rock Sister, Ana Popovich at Penn's Peak, in Jim Thorpe, PA. Tickets are going fast for this one too so don't miss out!
On June 14th, I'll be down the shore at the legendary Wonder Bar to play Asbury Park, NJ for the very first time! My parents grew up around there! I'm sharing the bill with an amazing up and coming soul talent, Gedeon Luke. Check him out. This is going to be a night of high energy ROCK & SOUL!
Then, it's off to Norway in late June to kick off the Bliss Avenue Summer Festival Tour, starting with a special event for troops at the NATO Base in Orland. I'm psyched to be back at some of Europe's most prestigous festivals like Bospop in The Netherlands, where I'll share the bill with legends Crosby, Stills & Nash and ZZ Top. Also excited for my return for two nights at The Notodden Blues Festival in Norway with friends & label mates Royal Southern Brotherhood, my friend Beth Hart and other amazing artists such as, Van Morrison & Tedeschi Trucks Band.
I'll also be playing some legendary festivals for the very first time at Cahors Blues Festival in France with Royal Southern Brotherhood, as well as fests in Spain, Poland, Hungary, Lithuania, Sweden and Denmark! In August I'll make my triumphant return to the USA for a month-long tour of clubs and festivals so please keep checking my tour dates!
Thanks to you ALL for the continued support and I can't wait to see you 'round the globe very soon!
Much Love,
Dana
