Howard Benson Returns As Producer To Follow Up Debut, Which Sold 5 Million Copies Worldwide Daughtry unveils the title of its second album Leave This Town (19 Recordings/RCA). Released on july 14, the album once again produced by howard benson (All American Reject, My Chemical Romance) features a dozen plus songs, incluiding the first single “ No Surprise “.
Chris Daughtry, basist Josh Paul, drummer Joey Barnes, and guitarist Brian Crasddock and Josh Steely recorded Leave This Town in Los Angeles. Much of the album explores the different paths we take in our search for transcendence. “ A lot of it is about how leaps of faith can set us free or tie us down, and how we often find heartache when we run from something and redemption when we run toward something,” say Chris Daughtry.
Musically, the album shifts gears smoothly between arena-rock anthem (No Surprise, Ghost of Me), hushed ballads (September), emotional mid-tempos (Life after You, Learned My Lesson) and country-influenced (Tennessee Line).
Leave This Town is Daughtry’s follow-up to its 2006 Grammy-nominated debut, wich sold 5 million copies worldwide. The eponymous album spawned a trio of #1 songs, was the largest-selling artist release for two years running, and earned multiple wins at the American Music Awards, the World Music Awards and the Billboard Music Awards.
