June 15, 2009 � St. Louis, MO � Chatham Drive Records� recording artists, Already August announced the release of their self-titled debut studio album for sale through most of the major internet distributors. The album was picked up by i-Tunes, Amazon, CD-Baby, and Target (on-line), to name a few, with other outlets being added on a regular basis.
�Already August� is an Americana painting told through infectious pop/rock songs that reflect our daily existence. The music draws you into each song as you place yourself in the lyrics. From the initial song (�Come On In�), you are welcomed out of the rat race to sort things out, and in the final minutes of the album (�In New York City�) you are sent out into the world knowing you are not alone.
Already August consists of two members who wrote the material, played the instruments, performed the vocals; produced, arranged, engineered, mixed and mastered this album in its entirety.
The founding members, Michael Daniel and Jimmy Edwards, have known each other their entire lives. From a very young age they have had the same musical interests and influences and were destined to write and record together.
Ken Hensley, from the well-known rock band Uriah Heep, helped guide with song writing tips, equipment purchases, and song critique early in the band�s career. They have written and performed musical scores for local web sites, and they have produced, recorded, and performed on CD�s of local musicians in the St. Louis area.
The album, �Already August� is a concept album with a culmination of original material that is well-written and will take you on a musical journey from beginning to end.
