Dove Award winning and GRAMMY nominated rock band Day of Fire is readying for the release of its second studio album Cut and Move on Essential Records on June 6th. Cut and Move was produced by Pete Thornton with lyrics penned by lead singer Josh Brown and music written collectively by the five-member band.

When asked about Day of Fire’s new project, Brown muses, “Cut and Move is about identifying with the pain and insecurity that we all feel, and finding hope in the love of God. We are all in a desperate and constant need of that love. It’s our intention to reach out to listeners about topics such as addiction, abuse, and abandonment.”

Before Day of Fire, Josh Brown was front man for Island-Def Jam band Full Devil Jacket. Ever since the day that God rescued Josh from life robbing addictions, he has been reveling in the miraculous change in his life. According to Brown, “Now more than ever I want to share my story with as many souls as possible, especially those I encountered prior to running to God.”

Day of Fire will be on the road this spring on its headlining tour Reborn with Red, Fighting Instinct, Decyfer Down, and Common Roy, followed by major festival dates this summer and further touring opportunities in the fall.

Since its self-titled debut, Day of Fire has garnered a Dove Award for Rock Album of the Year, a GRAMMY nomination. It charted at #34 on Canada’s Top 50 Chart in February 2005. When you ask what he’s learned from all of the group’s achievements, Brown consistently comments, “it’s not about the awards or the places we’ve traveled, it’s about the people we’ve met. I want to show people the love of God in action; loving people for who they are.”

Cut And Move will be available at Christian retailers throughout Canada on June 6th. Head over to Day Of Fire’s YMZ artist page to hear clips of this rockin’ album and stay tuned to HearItFirst.ca for the Cut And Move album premiere in the next few weeks.
