Californian blues-rockers RIVAL SONS are preparing to release a special redux version of their 2011 breakthrough album, PRESSURE & TIME, a day after they kick off a European tour.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The band will start the tour on March 11th with a run of UK dates with BLACK STONE CHERRY, before heading on to mainland Europe for a number of headlining shows.<\/p>\n

RIVAL SONS guitarist SCOTT HOLIDAY comments:<\/p>\n

“We’re looking forward to getting back to our ‘home away from home’, Europe, and specifically the UK.\u00a0 Since we were last out there we did a tour of the States and a quick run through Canada, where we pleasantly received an overwhelming response, which is fantastic.\u00a0 This time we’ll be joining up with the band Black Stone Cherry for the UK dates – we hear they do really well in the UK, and are a buncha good dudes.<\/p>\n

“The rest of Europe will see us on our own, headlining again – great response last time, and it looks like this tour is already selling really well.\u00a0 We’ll have our follow-up record wrapped up before we leave for the tour (which we’re working on feverishly right now), so I suspect we’ll be feeling good and fired up to get cracking back on stage every night.\u00a0 Might even sneak a new number in here and there.<\/p>\n

“Dearest UK and European friends – we see you are starved of the rock ‘n’ roll – famished even – and that makes us sad.\u00a0 No one deserves that!\u00a0 So now, we will bring you the rock ‘n’ roll sandwich.\u00a0 That’s us… the Rival Sons.\u00a0 See ya soon.”<\/p>\n

Due to be released on March 12th, the PRESSURE & TIME limited edition CD redux includes two bonus tracks, “Company Man” and “Life For This Road”, plus a bonus DVD featuring the following videos:<\/p>\n

* “Gypsy Heart”, “Pressure and Time” and “Soul” live from High Voltage festival 2011
* “Pressure and Time” live backstage at Werchter festival 2011
* “Pressure and Time”, “All Over the Road” and “Get What’s Coming” official music videos
* Pressure & Time promotional trailer<\/p>\n

RIVAL SONS drummer MICHAEL MILEY comments:<\/p>\n

“We’re stoked to release this content because we wanted to give fans the chance to own some of the extras – there’s tons of video footage as extras, but up until now our videos have only been available on YouTube.\u00a0 We’re proud to give people a visual of what we do.\u00a0 Not everyone is YouTube savvy, and videos online are at the whim of internet.\u00a0 It’s good for people to have a hard copy of this.”<\/p>\n

RIVAL SONS frontman JAY BUCHANAN adds:<\/p>\n

“Evidently Pressure & Time keeps building steam all over the place and it’s not ready to die, so the label wanted to give it another shot.\u00a0 We’re releasing a third single for that record so someone must be hot for it!\u00a0 It’ll have a couple of B-sides from those sessions, videos for the singles and some live footage.\u00a0 If you want any of that, buy one!”<\/p>\n
