I can't believe I'm saying this but we are just 3 weeks away from Above & Beyond's most illustrious North American tour to date, the “Common Ground” tour. The tour shares the title of the band’s forthcoming album, “Common Ground”, out January 26 on Anjunabeats.
Fans who pre-order the album now will immediately receive the 2017 festival anthems ‘My Own Hymn', ‘Northern Soul', ‘Alright Now', & ‘Tightrope.' In addition to these four tracks, Above & Beyond is ready to reveal the full & final tracklisting for the entire album.
Additional album tracks include “The Inconsistency Principle,” “Is It Love (1001),” “Common Ground,” two tracks with Justine Suissa (“Naked” and “Cold Feet”), two tracks with Zoë Johnston (“Sahara Love” and “Always”) and two songs with Richard Bedford (“Happiness Amplified” and “Bittersweet And Blue.”)
To say I'm stoked at that tracklisting is an understatement. I know some fans will be annoyed with the amount of features and vocals on the album but I absolutely love it. One of my main draws to Above & Beyond is there way to find the perfect vocalist for each track.
