All-Star Band CHICKENFOOT To Re-Release Debut Album With Live Bonus Tracks!

Having established themselves in record time as one of the earth’s premier Rock bands with their Gold-certified self-titled debut, CHICKENFOOT will be re-releasing their  self-titled, 'Chickenfoot,' as a deluxe double disc version on October 16th, 2012. Frontman Sammy Hagar comments:

"Chickenfoot 1 will always be special to me for exactly what it is. Our former label went out of business and the album had been discontinued. You could not find the album anywhere, which is crazy! We got the masters back and our NEW label will re-release the 1st album and we thought we should include some live tracks from 'Chickenfoot lll'.”

The release will feature live tracks recorded on the "Different Devil" tour this past spring while supporting their latest record, "Chickenfoot III."

DISC 1:

Avienda Revolution
Soap On A Rope
Sexy Little Thing
Oh Yeah
Runnin Out
Get It Up

DISC 2:

CHICKENFOOT released 'Chickenfoot III' late last year to much critical praise. "It's hard to hate big-boned butt Rock from guys clearly making it because they still love the form," said  ROLLING STONE.

BILLBOARD said, “It’s a rare case of a group that’s equal to – or perhaps even greater than – the sum of its parts…this is an album that really wins hearts with its granite thump’n’roll.” USA TODAY went as far to say that "Chickenfoot III" could be "the beginning of a riff-driven renaissance."

In addition to a GRAMMY Nomination for "Best Recording Package," "Chickenfoot III" saw two top five singles on the Classic Rock charts with "Big Foot" and "Different Devil."

CHICKENFOOT is:

- Sammy Hagar
- Joe Satriani

Chickenfoot - Video Premiere Of 'Behind the Foot: The Truth Behind Chickenfoot II'!

Following their recent GRAMMY nomination for the recently released 'Chickenfoot III', Chickenfoot – the supergroup featuring guitarist Joe Satriani, drummer Chad Smith, former Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony and frontman Sammy Hagar – is premiering a video today that playfully speculates whatever happened to the seemingly overlooked Chickenfoot II album: “Behind the Foot: The Truth Behind Chickenfoot II.”

Satriani says, "we promised never to talk about it so I’m surprised we’re talking about it now.”



The band, which recently earned a GRAMMY nomination for the “Best Recording Package,” for the creative 3D design of their recent 'Chickenfoot III' album will release their NEW single, “Different Devil,” to radio on January 17th before embarking on a European tour in late January 2012.



Chickenfoot recently wrapped a sold out 2011 'Road Test Tour' that took them through San Francisco, Los Angeles, St. Louis, Chicago and New York with a stop for a performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! In each city along the tour, Hagar made a donation to a local food bank in a special partnership with Feeding America to encourage fans to do the same to help fight hunger, an important message that he also intended to convey through the music video for “Three And A Half Letters (I Need A Job).”

The first single from Chickenfoot III, “Big Foot,” debuted at #1 on the Mediabase Classic Rock Chart holding the position for 11 weeks, earning over 1.85 million listeners, and the album received critical acclaim. 'Chickenfoot III' features 10 tracks with so many moments of epiphany that one can barely take them all in on first listen. Colossal, stadium-shaking riffs abound on earth-movers such as “Alright, Alright,” “Last Temptation” and “Lighten Up.” Tradition meets innovation on the Nashville pop-tinged “Different Devil,” the Delta-blues flavored “Something Going Wrong” and the aching rock ballad “Come Closer.”

'Chickenfoot III' debuted at #9 on the Billboard Top 100 and follows the band’s 2009 debut album, which debuted at #3 on the Billboard Top 100 and was certified gold for sales over 500,000 units by the Recording Industry Association of America.
