(Nashville, Tenn.) May 17, 2012-Veteran rock band Third Day has been spending a generous part of 2012 immersed in the recording of its next studio album. The forthcoming project, Third Day's 17th career offering, is being recorded within the walls of its own state-of-the art studio, The Quarry, in Atlanta, Ga. Third Day is working with veteran rock producer Brendan O'Brien.

O'Brien is well known for his work with Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Audioslave and The Fray, among others. A former vice president of Epic Records, O'Brien has won two GRAMMY Awards including 2010's producer of the year, Non-Classical award. In addition, O'Brien has production credits on 14 albums that have topped the Billboard 200 sales chart.

"When we were getting together as a band to talk about starting work on this project, we did an exercise where each member named his top five albums of all time. Brendan O'Brien had at least one record on all of our lists," offers bassist, Tai Anderson.

Mac Powell, the band's front man, shares, "Our time with Brendan has been nothing less than an amazing experience. He is one of my favorite producers. Having made so many great records with so many amazing artists through the years, I consider it such an honor to be working with him. Brendan has definitely stretched me as a songwriter and vocalist more than any other producer ever has."

The new project follows a stellar 2011 for Third Day, which included being the first Christian artist ever to receive ASCAP's coveted Vanguard Award, as well as wrapping up its highly successful spring/fall "Make Your Move Tour" which saw numerous sell-out performances.

Additional information on Third Day's latest record is forthcoming. In the meantime, fans can catch the band on select concert performances throughout the summer, where it intends to begin previewing select tracks from the new recording. For a current list of tour dates, visit: www.ThirdDay.com.
