Collective Soul 'From the Ground Up' album

Collective Soul - From the Ground Up

Hot on the heels of their second single, “Better Now,” from the critically acclaimed album “Youth,” Collective Soul has announced two new 2005 releases.

The first is an intimate 8-track acoustic collection titled “From the Ground Up” to be released via the bands newly formed El Music Group label on April 26. The band also announced they will perform and record two live shows with the Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra on Saturday, April 23 and Sunday, April 24 in Atlanta, GA at the Woodruff Arts Center. Titled “Collective Soul ‘Home’ with the Atlanta Youth Symphony,” a DVD and CD of this event will be released this fall. Portions of the proceeds will benefit the Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra.

The concerts, to be filmed by renowned Director/Producer Pierre Lamoureux (The Who, Alanis Morissette, Willie Nelson), will be taped in high definition for the “Home” DVD. Subsequent releases stemming from these recordings include a 2-CD collection and a box set that will include both the live CD’s and DVD with a bonus DVD highlighted by interviews, a “making of…” and added bonus features. The box set will also feature extensive liner notes and exclusive packaging.

“The initial idea developed as a unique opportunity between us and the Atlanta Symphony,” says Ed Roland. “During discussions about the project, we learned that Atlanta houses one of the top 3 youth symphonies in the country and with our new record appropriately titled “Youth,” the idea transitioned naturally.”

Tickets for the shows will be made available Friday, March 4 via an internet pre-sale, before tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, March 11th. Please log on to CollectiveSoul.com this week for detailed instructions on how to purchase your tickets before anyone else!
