The Down East Boys Announce Upcoming album, "Something To Shout About"

Down East Boys

"We are excited to share this new music," says the Down East Boys' Ricky Carden, as he and his colleagues announce the forthcoming release of Something to Shout About, their first full-length album for Sonlite Records since 2020's Faithful Still - and though he doesn't say it, that excitement builds on what's already been generated by the Southern Gospel quartet's release of a series of singles over recent months.  

Produced and arranged by Jason WebbSomething to Shout About  - now available for pre-save/add ahead of its October 11 release - is a collection that makes frequent use of expansive orchestration, lending an air of musical sophistication to the inspirational messages embodied in its 10 songs, from the bold opening notes of their latest single, "When Believers Will Be Leaving," to the gentle close of "That's What Heaven Holds," with its wistful, yet certain vision of eternity:

That's what Heaven holds for me
In the presence of Jesus
What a moment that will be
Embracing my loved ones waiting there
Freedom from all my earthly care
One in the song of praise to Him
For all eternity
That's what heaven holds for me

Indeed, while there are plenty of spirited numbers on Something To Shout About - including the title track, the stirring "Mercy River" and "Go Tell," with its lively invocation of Jesus' coming - some of its most memorable moments are heard in the tender, lushly arranged Mosie Lister classic, "His Hand In Mind," the stately ballad, "I'll Have A New Name" and a new version of second single (and another classic), "He Looked Beyond My Fault," that features an extended instrumental introduction to set the mood for its powerful message of redemption. Add it all up, and Something to Shout About is a set that's sure to please old fans, and to make some new ones, too - for both its musical ministry and the artistry of the Down East Boys.

Most importantly, says Carden, "From the first note to the last, our prayer is that God will use this collection of songs to lift your spirit and draw you closer to Him."
