About The Revivalists
https://store.therevivalists.com


The strongest bonds never bend, break, or burst. Such a bond forms the bedrock of anything worth fighting for, whether it be a family, a friendship —or a band. The Revivalists retain this union 15 years into their impressive career as they prepare to unleash their strongest material yet. Standing together, this eight-piece rock 'n' roll collective has made the journey from hole-in-the-wall marathon gigs to sold-out shows at hallowed venues a la Radio City Music Hall and Red Rocks Amphitheater, multiplatinum success, numerous national television performances, and more than 800 million streams. Along the way, the musicians —David Shaw [lead vocals, guitar], Zack Feinberg [guitar], Andrew Campanelli [drums], George Gekas [bass], Ed Williams [pedal steel guitar], Rob Ingraham [saxophone], Michael Girardot [keyboard, trumpet], and PJ Howard [drums, percussion]— never lost sight of where they came from. It shows on their fifth full-length offering, Pour It Out Into The Night (Concord Records). 


"Music, art, and creativity are a rallying point," Andrew observes. "That's what our band name and songs try to speak to. Being in communion with other people is what this is all about. That we can share this experience with others through music is something that we are so grateful for."


"This band is one of the biggest representations of love in my life. It's love personified. And what we've created has turned into something bigger than all of us. It's still mind-boggling to me to this day," marvels David.


The Revivalists make the kind of rock 'n' roll that grabs you and doesn't let go, whether for a joyful release or a pensive observation about life. Pour It Out Into The Night is a life-affirming album about living in the moment, fueled by lessons in gratitude and life realizations. As the world came to a standstill in the years since their last album, Take Good Care, personal experiences and life challenges abounded, with band members having their first children, getting married, and navigating the mental hurdles of lockdown.


"Art can revive and make life feel vibrant," says Andrew. "Live music can especially do that. When we first started out, we were watching New Orleans rebuild after Katrina, and fight to keep the city's spirit alive. In a way, that's what we're seeing now, except on a global scale. Everybody realizes what they almost lost, and it happens to be many of the things New Orleans is known for – being with friends, experiencing things good and bad, building fulfilling relationships, and going to concerts and restaurants. It boils down to the zest for life - that's what our band name and music are all about."
