The Wreckers Release Live CD/DVD, New Video
The Wreckers – country music duo Jessica Harp and Michelle Branch – have released their first live album,
Way Back Home: Live From New York City, via Warner Bros. Records. The album was recorded at the group’s sold-out show at the Bowery Ballroom in New York City on July 13, 2007 and features live performances of "Leave The Pieces" and the title track “Way Back Home,” among others.
The release also includes a DVD featuring footage of the concert. For a sample,
check out the video for "Leave The Pieces (Live)," recently posted on YouTube.
The night was a special one for the group. Jessica Harp explains: "The night we filmed our live DVD was especially significant for me because I had just gotten engaged the night before…During the performance, Michelle announces to the audience that Jason asked me to marry him. It was the first time anyone other than my family and bandmates knew I was engaged. When you watch the DVD, you will see I'm wearing my engagement ring onstage for the first time."
Way Back Home: Live From New York City may be the last new Wreckers release in the foreseeable future. Earlier in the year, both Harp and Branch announced plans to record solo albums, putting The Wreckers on hold for the time being. Release dates have yet to be announced for the solo albums, but fans may want to keep an on eye on the group’s
MySpace page for updates.
