The long wait for Sevendust’s new album is almost over. The band—Lajon Witherspoon (vocals), Vince Hornsby (bass), Clint Lowery (guitar/vocals), Morgan Rose (drums/vocals), and John Connolly (guitar/vocals)—has announced that it will release its fan-funded acoustic album Time Travelers & Bonfires will be released nationwide in April. The upcoming all-acoustic compilation will feature a collection of new songs mixed in with re-worked versions of songs such as: ‘Black’, ‘Gone’, ‘Denial’, ‘Karma’, ‘Trust’ and ‘Crucified’ just to name a handful of songs. Time Travelers& Bonfires isn’t the first time that Sevendust’s members have delved into the acoustic side of their songs. The band released the highly acclaimed live acoustic recording Southside Double-wide in 2004. One writer with All Music Guide wrote of that recording, “Fans should invest readily in Southside Double-Wide…Sevendust’s famously confrontational sound smolders, and damn it if their sensitive side isn’t just as fiery.” The complete listing for Time Travelers & Bonfires is available below.

Before the band hits the road this Spring, it will be part of the annual ShipRocked cruise. It will be in good company when the cruise leaves port. Also scheduled to perform on the cruise are: Papa Roach, Five Finger Death Punch, Three Days Grace, In This Moment, Tremonti, Black Stone Cherry, and a slew of others. The cruise will depart from the Port of Miami this Sunday, January 26th and will return next Thursday, January 30th. While at sea, the cruise will take audiences to Great Stirrup Cay, a private island in the Bahamas. A small number of staterooms for this year’s cruise is still available. Vacationers and audiences get info on that limited space online at the official ShipRocked website, http://www.ShipRocked.com.
