Nashville, Tenn. Aug. 29, 2011… Acclaimed artist Audrey Assad releases an exclusive iTunes “Live from SoHo” record today. The stunning eight-track album was recorded live at the Apple Store in the SoHo district of New York City. It features a mixture of new tunes, songs from her debut The House You’re Building and an affectionate cover of Bruce Springsteen’s “Hungry Heart.” To purchase the album on iTunes visit, http://bit.ly/qfU63Y.
“I hand-picked a group of musicians whose skill and heart I felt I needed to perform these songs as emotively and beautifully as I heard them in my head: Marshall Altman, my dear friend and producer, my guitar hero Michael Chaves, Nathan Thomas, and Steven Kadar. Recording in New York City with these guys was a great pleasure, and I couldn’t be more proud of the finished product.”
A video journaling Audrey’s preparation for the project and trip to New York has also been released—directed by Kate Rentz and produced by Both/And Creative in collaboration with More Media. To embed or view, visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tOvU9SaH_Y.
“I’m honestly tickled to have this opportunity, not to mention humbled,” says Audrey. “It’s such an honor to represent the incredibly talented people I write and sing and work with, and I’m grateful to iTunes for the opportunity to do so. It’s exciting to bring these songs to a new audience.”
