Sister Hazel
Doors @ 6:30pm * Show @ 8:00pm

Sister Hazel is an alternative rock, folk and southern rock band with the hits "All for You" and "Change Your Mind."

Offering a vibrant variety of Sister Hazel's songs, Release kicks off with Newell's title track, a country-flavored rocker that not only features his banjo playing but also his cello debut. This song along with his "Take A Bow" resulted from a songwriters' retreat where he wound up collaborating with folks like Pat McGee, Emerson Hart and Michael Daly. Block's two tracks ("Walls & Cannonballs" and "See Me Beautiful") hold down the disc's center and exemplify the disc's diversity, with the former being a rousing rocker about a troubled relationship and the latter a quieter, inspiring song. Beres' "Ghost In The Crowd" closes the album with an exclamation point. This anthemic arena rocker, which features some of Newell's nimblest guitar work, was a consensus pick to conclude the disc. Beres states the dramatic music feeds upon the lyric's powerful content. "We had a lot personal stuff going on," he adds. "'Ghost In The Crowd' was my interpretation of life that was happening within the band."
