Dave Gahan & Soulsavers New Album ‘Angels & Ghosts’ Available Now In Stores & Digitally

(Columbia Records, New York, NY; October 23, 2015)  Multi-platinum recording artist Dave Gahan, along with musical partner Soulsavers, are proud to announce that their album Angels & Ghosts, is available today via Columbia Records. The release is the collaborators’ second album, following their critically-acclaimed 2012 release The Light the Dead See, and will be available in both physical and digital formats, with vinyl available in December. On October 15, NPR Music streamed the album in full as part of their First Listen series, with the stream whetting fans appetites, leading up to the album’s release today.  The “utterly riveting” album boasts nine original tracks, all written by Dave Gahan & Soulsavers. Excited about the powerful, live nature of the album, Dave Gahan & Soulsavers scheduled a series of six special performances in iconic, intimate venues across the US and Europe, with every venue selling out almost immediately after being announced. The shows kicked off with a packed crowd at the Ace Hotel in Los Angeles, followed by a stunning show in New York City at Town Hall the eve before release. Forthcoming shows in London, Berlin, Paris and Milan will follow, with all events live streamed via Yahoo so fans around the globe can participate in the once-in-a-lifetime concerts. Full dates and venues are listed below. In the album trailer, Dave comments about how new material he’s written inspires a mutual discovery process between the artist and his fans when showcasing it live:  “I don’t understand a song sometimes until I’m actually performing it, and then it takes on a whole other life when there’s an audience involved.” The cinematic first single, “All Of This And Nothing” was released last month to universal acclaim. The track can be streamed here: http://smarturl.it/allofthisandnothing An evolution from their first album, Angels & Ghosts proves to be a markedly stronger and more hard-hitting body of work. Listeners can expect to be led through an aural mix of dark, brooding sounds, elements inspired by gospel and blues, and the stark beauty that has become a signature of Dave and Soulsavers’ works. Dave Gahan’s emotionally powerful voice has never sounded better, and drives the album forward over a landscape of meticulously crafted instrumentation. A transatlantic collaboration, the writing process started with Dave Gahan and Soulsavers’ Rich Machin exchanging demos and ideas from their respective studios in lower Manhattan and rural England. They then recorded the album with additional musicians in studios around the world, including classic locations such as Sunset Sound in Los Angeles and Electric Lady in New York. The end result is a vibrant, live-sounding album, and proof of the “instant and obvious fit” Machin felt writing with Gahan.
