Standing with Matthews


There’s very little chance for there to be another U2 the way the music business is constructed right now. You have to have a single immediately; if you don’t, you don’t get a second chance. Bruce Springsteen didn’t have a single for 10 years. Neil Young? I’m not sure he ever had a single. Every Neil Young song sounds like a single to me. – Bono, U2 frontman(Billboard.com, March 2005) 

Dave Matthews Band has christened its new album Stand Up, which will be released on May 10 via RCA. First single is American Baby. The album is the follow-up to 2002’s Busted Stuff, which debuted at No.1 on the Billboard 200 and has sold 1.9 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. DMB has given fans a peak into the sessions via video clips on a dedicated new album website. “This is one of the best experiences we’ve ever had in the studio,” bassist Stefan Lessard says. “Things happened so organically and I think we’ve really captured the essence of what makes us gel so well as a band.” Although a track list has not yet been confirmed, among the songs expected to make the final cut are the vocal harmony-laden Dream Girl, Stolen Away, Smooth Ride, Hello Again, Joy Ride, Die Trying and Old Dirt Road.
