New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Iconic Newfoundland singer-songwriter, best-selling author, actor and recent recipient of the Order of Canada, Alan Doyle released his third solo album, A Week at The Warehouse today via Universal Music Canada.
A Week at The Warehouse was recorded live off the floor with Doyle's band and legendary producer Bob Rock at the helm. The album is chock-a-block with country-tinged, radio-ready tunes that carry Doyle's signature blend of traditional and modern flavors. Rock's own band, Payola$, is celebrated with a cover of "Forever Light Will Shine" - which includes a guest vocal from none other than Paul Hyde. The album's first single, the call to the campfire salvo "Summer Summer Night" was released in June of this year, with a second to follow.

Doyle was the lead singer of iconic Canadian band Great Big Sea, known for fusing traditional Newfoundland music with their own pop sensibilities. Their nine albums, double-disc hits retrospective, and two DVD releases have all been declared Gold or Platinum and have sold a combined 1.2 million copies in Canada. His third solo album continues to cement Doyle's reputation as one of the country's most treasured musicians and storytellers.
On October 17, Doyle will also release the follow-up to his best-selling 2014 memoir, Where I Belong, with A Newfoundlander In Canada: Always Going Somewhere, Always Coming Home. Picking up approximately where the last concluded, this book tells of Doyle's first explorations outside of Newfoundland, experiencing the breadth of Canada for the first time.
Doyle will embark on a 45+ date North American tour in 2018. In Doyle's words, "I always want people to have the greatest night of their life when the house lights go down."
