The HOT STREAK will continue this fall for THE WINERY DOGS (Richie Kotzen-lead vocals\/guitar, Mike Portnoy-drums, Billy Sheehan-bass). Their second appropriately titled, self-produced studio album, HOT STREAK, is set for release October 2 on Loud & Proud Records via RED (a division of Sony Music Entertainment) and in the rest of the world via earMUSIC. It will be preceded by the first single, \u201cOblivion,\u201d set for release August 25 at radio. A double vinyl edition of the new album is also in the works and is due out in early November.
After playing over 100 shows in support of their self-titled debut album, THE WINERY DOGS are eager to head back out on the road to get behind HOT STREAK. Their first round of U.S. headlining tour dates will kick off October 3 in Ridgefield, CT at the Ridgefield Playhouse. Shows around the globe are already being planned for 2016.<\/p>\n

HOT STREAK shows the powerfully pedigreed trio\u2019s initial burst of collective chemistry was no accident, from the strum and headbang of \u201cCaptain Love\u201d to the propulsive uplifting vibe of \u201cThe Bridge\u201d to the introspective acoustic harmonic convergence of \u201cFire.\u201d If these three Dogs thought they captured lightning in a supper dish the first time around, HOT STREAK barks ups the aural ante into exciting new territory.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel we\u2019ve taken the band to another level,\u201d explains Richie Kotzen. \u201cThe compositions are stronger on this album. I feel more connected lyrically and musically to what I did on this record than on the last one. We\u2019ve widened the musical scope of the band on this record and moved it forward.”<\/p>\n

Mike Portnoy continues, \u201cEverything on this album was more of a collaboration than on the first album. There\u2019s just a natural chemistry. The three of us really mesh very, very well, both musically and personally. The mission of this band is to write catchy songs, and not have the musicianship overpower that.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m glad we\u2019re not playing it safe and just doing songs that automatically fit in the category of what we did on the first record,\u201d Billy Sheehan concludes. \u201cSome of them are a little different, and we definitely took chances. And you have to do that \u2014 otherwise, you don\u2019t grow.”<\/p>\n

The trio first exploded onto the Rock scene with their self-titled, self-produced and critically acclaimed debut album that was released July 23, 2013 on Loud & Proud Records and a sold-out worldwide tour. THE WINERY DOGS debuted on Billboard\u2019s \u201cTop Alternative Albums\u201d chart at #3, \u201cTop Independent Albums\u201d chart at #4, \u201cTop Rock Albums\u201d chart at #5, \u201cTop Internet Albums\u201d at #8 and \u201cTop 200 Albums\u201d chart at #27.<\/p>\n
