Brand New Album “Life Out Loud” By Mark Lindsay Former Leader Singer Of Paul Revere & The Raiders.


Mark Lindsay returns with a vengeance with “LIFE OUT LOUD” his first truly Rock & Roll record in over 10 years. In fact it is probably the best thing he has done since 1967. As the former lead singer of Paul Revere and The Raider we have not heard Mr. Lindsay rock like this since HUNGRY, GOOD THING, STEPPIN’ STONE, JUST LIKE ME, ect.

“LIFE OUT LOUD” is a collection of 14 songs co-written and co-produced by Mark and veteran songwriter/guitarist Gar Francis. Gar is a member of the New Jersey Garage Rock band The DOUGHBOYS who have received much attention from Steven Van Zandt’s Sirius Radio Show “LITTLE STEVEN’S UNDERGROUND GARAGE”. In fact Little Steven put his stamp of approval on “LIFE OUT LOUD” by singing and arranging the background vocals on the first single “LIKE NOTHING THAT YOU’VE SEEN” which was named “COOLEST SONG IN THE WORLD”

The basic tracks for “LIFE OUT LOUD” were recorded in two days by Kurt Reil at the House of Vibes studio in Highland Park, New Jersey and overdubs, mixing and mastering was completed in another five days. The idea was to record an album like they did in the 60’s, as live as possible with minimal overdubs and frills. The album features DOUGHBOYS, Mike Caruso on Bass, Richard X Heyman on Drums, Myke Scavone on Harmonica and Grip Weeds drummer Kurt Reil, along with Gar Francis on Guitar, Piano and Organ and even a ripping Sax solo by Mr. Lindsay himself.

Mark is currently on tour with the “HAPPY TOGETHER TOUR 2013” and the album can be purchased at any of the venues across the states as well as through BONGO BOY RECORDS, CDBABY, iTUNES and AMAZON.
