Tonic
6 Top Ten Singles with Over 4 MILLION Albums Sold - Tonic returns with their 4th new album entitled, 'TONIC'
It s been almost two years since their last project, the Grammy nominated 'Head on Straight' and the band have returned reenergized with a collection of eleven new songs. Each member adds a variety of musical contributions to the mix Emerson Hart provides lead vocals, acoustic guitars and keyboards; Jeff Russo plays lead electric, acoustic and rhythm guitars, keyboards, piano, lap steel, percussion and lends background vocals; Dan Lavery works the bass guitar, piano, acoustic guitar, harmonizes and sings background vocals. Produced by Tonic and Nathaniel Kunkel, 'TONIC' is redolent of their trademark honest, powerful, melodic rock sound.
Tonic have been on a whirlwind ride since their debut in 1998 when they earned the distinction of having released the #1 most-played rock song of the year. Since that auspicious debut, the band have sold millions, won numerous awards and Grammy nominations and developed a huge worldwide fan base as they tirelessly toured the world. All three members continue to bring a special energy to Tonic as they have created music collectively as well as explored other outlets both musical and otherwise (family life and fatherhood, being particularly notable). With this band as their central focus, however, they never present anything less than their best effort and 'TONIC' is a sincere reflection of that.
Says Emerson Hart: 'When we play music together it feels like going home. Getting together, playing some rock-n-roll, it s the best feeling in the world.'
