New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Raleigh, NC Americana band, New Reveille, release The Keep on
September 7, 2018 but the entire album is streaming today on Billboard Magazine's website. The band was just named by Rolling Stone Country as one of the "10 New Country Artists You Need to Know: August 2018" which showcases "...the month's best new country and Americana performers." Rolling Stone Country calls out New Reveille for fans of "the Civil Wars, Delta Rae, Shovels & Rope" describing their sound as, "Twangy, truck-driving music that runs on classical gas... a slick set of jacked-up folk-rock." Nashville based producer / engineer Ben Fowler (Rascal Flatts, Ruby Amanfu, Lucy Hale, Kip Moore), a Multi-Platinum, Grammy Award winning, ACM Engineer of the Year nominee, produced their debut Loud & Proud Records release.

Sounds in their hometown.
New Reveille's distinctive talents find common ground in traditions that stretch back to and beyond early America. On that foundation, they build a unique sound that encompasses the virtues of music that came before and the promise of what it might yet become. Amy Kamm dances deftly on lead vocals between artful interpretive solo parts and three-part female harmonies that somehow soar, caress, and electrify all at once.
Daniel Cook (banjo/guitar) and
George Hage (guitar) avoid flashy patterns, and instead hearken back to a pre-bluegrass era. Kaitlin Grady on cello, adds a classical element, while blending with Autumn
Brand on violin to create mini-orchestral textures and melodies. The songs vary. Lyrics conjure ominous visions and premonitions like "Hounds," New Reveille's first single, which addresses karma, and how one's past eventually converges with the present. Songs are more narrative like the title track, "The Keep" which was inspired by Amy Kamm's experience working as a nurse at a prison. They feel personal but also literary, like some sadness from the past preserved in the poetry of song. Their music resonates and grows with each new hearing.
"Hounds" is impacting Americana and non-commercial radio formats, added to Sirius/XM's The Village, WMOT, KPIG, Stingray, WAPS, WETS, WFIV, WMNF, WNRN, and WQBR. Pre-orders are available now through New Reveille's PledgeMusic store. Exclusive items are also available including various signed items, hand-written lyrics, instruments, unique experiences such as Skype cello or violin lessons, an acoustic house concert, and more. All pledgers will get an instant track download of an early recording of the song, "Miracle."
