Publish Date: Jun 01, 2006

One of the industries top bands, 2004 and 2006 GRAMMY® Awards winning Audio Adrenaline will add a final chapter to its substantial career with ADIOS: The Greatest Hits, releasing Aug. 1. After 15 years of music, mission and service, Audio Adrenaline is saying “adios”, offering one more nod to its considerable fan base with the album and an aggressive tour itinerary through the end of this year.

Fans will receive a commemorative look at the expansive career of Audio Adrenaline through ADIOS: The Greatest Hits. The album boasts 17 tracks, including 12 No. 1 radio hits. The recording will also feature two newly recorded songs. The first new song, the contemplative and hopeful Goodbye, will release to radio June 9th. The second song will be a celebratory cover of The Alarm’s Blaze Of Glory, signifying a band that is going out on top and one that will refuse to take itself too seriously, all the way to the end.

The companion ADIOS DVD to be a part of a special edition ADIOS retail package will feature a third newly recorded song, a cover of the classic Charlie Peacock song, Down In The Lowlands. The DVD will also include five Audio Adrenaline videos, live performance footage and interviews from artists impacted by Audio Adrenaline. Some of the artists already signed up to participate are tobyMac, Steven Curtis Chapman, MercyMe, Pillar and Relient K. Each of these artists is sharing tour experiences and favourite memories of Audio Adrenaline.

But AudioA is not done yet!

As one of today’s top touring attractions, known for members’ explosiveness and energetic outpourings, coupled with state of the art production, the band’s final touring schedule includes performing at all the major summer festivals one last time and performing on a 35-city tour with MercyMe this fall. The energy around this touring is anticipated to be very high as fans learn that this will be their last opportunity to see one of today’s most successful and influential rock bands.

Poised to go out with fists in the air, AudioA’s acclaimed ninth studio album, Until My Heart Caves In, released last August and grabbed the coveted GRAMMY® this year, marking back-to-back GRAMMY® wins for AudioA. Their first GRAMMY® was for their 2004 release, Worldwide.

Although retiring due to front man Mark Stuart’s ongoing vocal challenges, the band has since 1991 taken a full throttled blast of musical passion, melded it with a compassionate desire to impact the world at large and added members’ rock-solid grounding in reality with their vulnerable, no holds barred songwriting. Thanks to earnest performances and undying appreciation for its fans, the group has sold over three million records and racked up 18 No. 1 singles and four Dove Awards. The band’s Bloom recording was certified Gold by the RIAA in 1999 and they were awarded the prestigious “Song of the Decade” crowning in the 90s for Big House by CCM Magazine.

The band is also well known for its humanitarian aid and will continue their Hands and Feet Project, a non-profit organization and orphanage they formed dedicated to the health, welfare and education of orphaned children of Haiti. Additionally, band members remain heavily involved with the label they founded, Flicker Records.
