On the 40th anniversary of their mega-hit “Slow Ride,” the eight-time Gold-selling Foghat is recording a new studio album for the first time since 2010. Under The Influence features a brand new set of original songs from the blues rock band, plus a very special bonus track: a new recording of “Slow Ride” in honor of original Foghat members Lonesome Dave and Rod Price! From chances to sing on the new “Slow Ride” chorus to jamming with the band on stage, there’s plenty of interactive ways to join this commemorative project that salutes both past and present; get involved now via PledgeMusic. 

"After 40 something years this band is still rockin’ and we don’t plan to stop," says Foghat. "Our new album, Under The Influence is about 50% done and since our 2015 tour is coming to an end, we are going back into the studio to finish the project. We are still a ‘work in progress’, writing and recording, and plan to be until the day we depart this earth! And we are about to release this new album with lots of special guests and some big surprises.

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of 'Slow Ride', we are re-recording the song with some old and new friends as a bonus track, in honor of Lonesome Dave and Rod Price. And you can even be part of the chorus!

If you join the PledgeMusic Campaign by pre-ordering an item, you will find out who our special guests are, hear clips of the new material, and know what is on the album first. We will also be posting video clips as we make the record of the band recording and just having a good time.

So join the party! It’s all about playing music and having a good time. We have been accused of ‘having too much fun’ but that’s not a bad thing!"
