Country star Billy Ray Cyrus is going rock with a new band called BROTHER CLYDE that also features Samantha Maloney (Motley CrГјe, Hole, Eagles of Death Metal) and guitarist Jamie Miller (theSTART, Snot).
The band will be releasing their self-titled debut album on August 10th via Buena Vista Records/Fontana with first singleВ ‘Lately’ already available on iTunes.
“I always loved rock ‘n’ roll,” Cyrus says. “That was a heavy part of what I was as a young juvenile delinquent. I tried from my first album to rock like any other Southern rock band.”
‘Brother Clyde’ also features the irresistible track, ‘The Right Time,’ an upbeat duet between Cyrus and a shockingly hard-rocking Dolly Parton.
The album ends with Johnny Cash’s ‘Walk the Line,’ recorded in 1998 with Cyrus and a line-up of all stars.
