D:Ream – Do It Anyway – Vinyl LP

Gatefold Sleeve, Coloured Vinyl

Peter Cunnah and Al Mackenzie, a.k.a. D:Ream land with their brand new, fifth studio album Do It Anyway, a well crafted, feel good blend of pop-electronic songs.

Do It Anyway’ssongs draw on a combination of the duos current & past life experiences, a 30 year journey through pop music and UK club culture plus some wry geo-political commentary. When added to some finely honed song-writing skills that delivered ten Top 40 hit singles Do It Anyway proves to be an accomplished album.

Do It Anyway is preceded by the release of the self-titled lead single, D:Ream’s homage to the not-so-innocent golden days of 90s clubbing adventures and will be priority promoted to radio & press alongside the album, aiming at mainstream national radio, BBC Radio 2, 6 Music, Capital plus red top and broadsheet press. A further single, The Geek Who Rules The World, is slated for release post-album to continue the campaign through the summer and will similarly be promoted as a priority single.

D:Ream are probably best known for their hits Things Can Only Get Better and UR The Best Thing. However, there is so much more than that to discover. They scored two UK Top 10 albums: 1993’s D:ream On Vo1 and 1995’s World, plus ten Top 40 singles! Things Can Only Get Better was no.1 for four weeks in 1994 then was famously co-opted as the anthem in 1997 by Tony Blair’s Labour Party, writing D:Ream into English history; pop, political and otherwise!

Do it Anyway will be released as a double LP with Red & Green coloured vinyl & the CD format comes with a 12 page booklet with liner notes + lyrics.
