COMMENTS: Recently, Hagar released his fifteenth studio album on July 25, 2006 on Rhino Records. On the album, Livin’ It Up, Hagar sings about what he knows best– parties, beaches, and love. The album’s first two singles—'Let Me Take You There' and 'Sam I Am'—both spent more than two months at #1 on Classic Rock radio.

Livin’ It Up contains 11 new studio tracks featuring Hagar and The Wabos - drummer David Lauser, guitarist Vic Johnson, and bassist Mona. The album mixes eclectic styles that range from the hard-driving hits 'Sam I Am' and 'Mexico', to the roots rocker 'The Way We Live', and the country-rock ballad 'Halfway'. Livin' It Up also spotlights two covers - a boozy take on Bob Dylan’s 'Rainy Day Women' and country superstar Toby Keith’s hit 'I Love This Bar'.

Hagar’s obsession with life where the land ends and the party begins bubbles to the top on several tracks. Founder of Cabo Wabo - a premium tequila and a cantina in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico - Hagar sounds at home behind the bar mixing up a love potion on 'One Sip', a track he co-wrote with contemporary-country hitmaker Kenny Chesney.

Hagar is also wrapping a very successful cross-country summer Livin’ It Up Tour 2006 with The Wabos and sets with former Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony, completing over 40 performances in three months.
