NEW TOUR DATES ANNOUNCED INCLUDING EAST COAST AND COLORADO

Nashville, TN – Celebrated band ALO (Animal Liberation Orchestra) has announced the April 4th release of their eclectic new album Frames (Brushfire Records) and new tour dates that include an East Coast run (see full list below). The 10-song offering boasts a seamless fusion of rock, electronic, alt-pop, R&B, folk, dance, funk and a touch of subtle wit, all played by an exceptional group of musicians with four distinct musical personalities – all of whom write and sing lead.

Today the California-based group releases their buoyant new single “Blank Canvas.” With its melodic guitar riff and easy-going vibe, “Blank Canvas” offers some much-needed optimism. Zach Gill (keyboards and vocals) says of the track he penned, “it’s about looking at the world with fresh eyes and leaving behind cynicism.” Bassist/vocalist Steve Adams adds, “sonically and thematically, it felt like the perfect album opener. Bare and vulnerable, yet full of possibility.” Listen to “Blank Canvas” HERE.

The theme running throughout Frames is a reaction to the rapid pace in which we live our lives. Due to the overwhelming rate in which information is thrust upon us, and the figurative groups (or frames) they come in, people are constantly challenged to decide what is vital and what is not before much of it dissipates, often leaving a societal wreckage in its wake. On Frames, ALO thoughtfully leans into the important space between those frames, where we can breathe, think, love and live our lives.  Guitarist/vocalist Dan “Lebo” Lebowitz covers this beautifully on the disco-influenced track “Space Between Frames.”

Drummer/vocalist Ezra Lipp addresses identifying our faults and learning to own them without letting them own us on the alt-rock infused “Rescue Our Demons.” Frames closes with the light-hearted pop ditty, “Friends.” The warm and happy sentiment the quirky track exudes could put a smile on Randy Newman’s face.

At a time when things may seem a bit dark, Frames offers a joyful escape by a band of life-long friends who became serious artists, unafraid to not take themselves too seriously while creating some seriously well-crafted songs.
