Ushering in a new generation of classic southern rock steeped in soul and the blues, The Georgia Thunderbolts are set to release their debut full-length album, Can We Get A Witness, out October 15th on digipack CD via Mascot Records. A vinyl edition of the album, with bonus track “Better Run From The Beast,” will be out November 26th. Pre-orders can be placed now at this location.

The Georgia Thunderbolts’ debut album features their scorching signature style steeped in soulful southern swagger, blistering blues, and raw rock with a wide swath of inspirations, ranging from southern gospel and Hank Williams to Merle Haggard, Neil Young, Little Feat and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

The album comprises thirteen undeniable anthems doused in anthemic riffs, wild harmonica, and pulse-pounding drums. The Georgia Thunderbolts rustle up a new era of rock ‘n’ roll, informed by their history in Rome, GA - a town with a deep agricultural history.

The song ‘Can I Get A Witness’ is a statement that goes out to anyone who has the desire and faith in themselves and others to be successful."

"There's a message to what we're doing," comments drummer Bristol Perry. "It's okay to be yourself. If you're going through hard times, the music will always be there. We'd love to remind everyone of that.”
