Release comments
Universal Music has announced the release of a new
studio album from British rock legends URIAH HEEP in
June 2008.
Wake The Sleeper will be URIAH HEEPs first studio
album in almost ten years (the first since 1998s
Sonic Origami) and is set to herald an exciting new
phase for the band. The album sees URIAH HEEP back to
their very best and is set to become a future classic
sure to please their dedicated worldwide fan base and
fans of progressive rock in general. Recorded in 2007
the album was produced by Mike Paxman (STATUS QUO,
JUDIE TZUKE). In the words of Mick Box, We are
delighted to be reunited with a major label in
Universal music. Wake The Sleeper is an album we are
incredibly proud of, and one that we hope the fans will
see as one of URIAH HEEPs best. We cant wait to get
back out on the road to showcase the new songs.
The live arena has been vital to the longevity of URIAH
HEEP. So in addition to album sales of over 30 million
worldwide the band have toured in 52 countries and
established themselves as consummate live performers.
The band has a series of impressive firsts including
being the first British rock band to play Russia in
December 1987.
This is the bands first album without their
long-standing and original drummer Lee Kerslake who
sadly had to leave the band due to ill health in
January 2007. Filling the drum stool for the very first
time is the hugely well-respected Russell Gilbrook
(Tony Iommi, Van Morrison, John Farnham and Lonnie
Donnegan).
Current band lineup is:
Mick Box - Guitar, Vocals
Trevor Bolder - Bass, Vocals
Phil Lanzon - Keyboards, Vocals
Bernie Shaw - Lead Vocals
Russell Gilbrook - Drums, Vocals
