(Los Angeles, CA – April 7, 2015) Grammy Award-nominated singer/songwriter Beth Hart has premiered her brand new studio album Better Than Home today via Billboard.com, one week before its release on April 14th. PRESS HERE to listen. After wrapping up a sold-out run of U.S. dates earlier this year, Beth crossed the globe to Europe and Australia to continue her extensive worldwide tour. She will be back in May to begin the second leg of her U.S. tour before heading back to Europe for additional dates later in the summer. See below for the full list of shows. PRESS HERE to watch the video for Beth’s lead single, “Mechanical Hart,” recently becoming one of the most-added songs at Triple A Radio.
Highly revered for her visceral vocals, dynamic range and impassioned live performances, Beth has been leveling audiences for the past two decades. Throughout her illustrious career, she has collected numerous accolades, a Grammy Award, #1 and Top 10 positions on the Billboard Blues Chart, a standing ovation from President Obama at the 2012 Kennedy Center Honors and admirers like Jeff Beck, Joe Bonamassa, Slash and Buddy Guy. Better Than Home finds Beth peeling back the intimate layers of her personal pain (from the loss of her sister to AIDS, to addiction and family strife, to a difficult bipolar diagnosis) and transforming it all into something empowering and positive. The ultimate conqueror, Hart bounced back at full creative strength and is prepared to own and share her story on Better Than Home, an album that is surely her most profound body of work to date.
