Yellowcard Releases "Ocean Avenue" Acoustic

Yellowcard
It seems as if a current trend with bands celebrating 10 year anniversaries is to re-release their first album. Yellowcard is a band that was popular in the early 2000's with their unique sound and violin incorporation. Earlier this year, they released their newest album, "Southern Air" and now they have announced that they too are going to release "Ocean Avenue" acoustic. There is no word yet whether it is going to be a live recording or a studio recording of the album. Taking Back Sunday's release of "Tell All Your Friends" was released as a live recording (on digital formats only) and I was a bit disappointed when I found this news, they could have appealed to more fans had they done a studio release across digital and physical formats.



On Yellowcard's website, fans can preorder their bundles for the August 13th release. Bundles vary in price from $20-$75. The band has already sold out of their $180 bundle, which included a signed vinyl and CD, two shirts, a 7'' vinyl, a vinyl test press of the album, and handwritten lyrics from vocalist, Ryan Key.

Additionally, Yellowcard has announced they will be launching a tour to promote the album, where they will play the entire "Ocean Avenue" acoustic album in addition to electric versions of other songs.
