Dan Reed Network Announces New Album

‘Let’s Hear It For The King’

Out March 4, 2022 via Drakkar Entertainment

Shares New Single “Starlight”

The Dan Reed Network are delighted to finally be able to bring you their latest slice of exhilarating rock, funk, and soul with the stunning new studio album, Let’s Hear It For The King. Their sixth studio album, and their first since 2018’s Origins album, Let’s Hear It For The King comes full circle to the band’s original vision statement – to challenge beliefs, smash down existing protocol, and build something new out of the shrapnel. The album will be released by Drakkar Entertainment on Friday March 4, 2022.

Longtime funk-rockers Dan Reed Network deliver another blast of soul-shaking music on the group’s new track and video “Starlight.” The song showcases DRN’s kinetic wizardry, addictive grooves, and rock music mastery, a potent combination that makes any new music from the band a reason to celebrate. Taken from their new album Let’s Hear It For The King, “Starlight” shows us Reed recommitting to his primordial goals of challenging beliefs, smashing existing protocol, and building a new world out of the wreckage. It’s more ripping, roaring funk/rock from one of the most drastically-entertaining outfits you’ll ever encounter in this world or any other. Highly recommended.

“We are chomping at the bit to get out there and bring people what we genuinely believe is the heaviest, funkiest and most melodic DRN album to date,” says Dan Reed. “These songs are the strongest representation of the band’s sound that we’ve ever created. You have been warned!”

Not for the faint-hearted, the long-awaited new DRN album pays tremendous detail to infectious melodies, provocative lyrics and honours their shredding funk rock roots. This album is for visionaries who want to be part of and bear witness to the next step in the Dan Reed Network’s artistic evolution.

The video for the first single Starlight premieres at 12pm BST on Thursday October 21st, followed by a live Q&A with Dan Reed at 8pm BST on the Dan Reed Network Artist Page on Facebook where he will discuss all things DRN, including the new music video and single, the album itself and the impending European Tour, all off which will celebrate the album’s highly anticipated release.

Available to pre-order from the Dan Reed Network store https://danreednetwork.tmstor.es, the new album will be available as a Limited Edition DRN LHIFTK box set, Limited Edition colored vinyl, and much more. Dan has even created personalized, hand-written lyric sheets for each song from Let’s Hear It For The King that will be randomly placed inside the limited-edition box sets. Happy hunting, everyone!

Those boys can rock. Anyone who’s seen DRN live knows that’s where we come to life. We’re ready to deliver a lot of energy and give the audience a direct shot of funk n’ roll!”
