NASHVILLE, TN.May 22, 2007. INO Records' announces the signing of
award-winning Christian group, folk-pop sensation Caedmon's Call. The group
will be releasing their 15th project Overdressed on Aug. 28, and features
former member-turned-solo singer/songwriter Derek Webb on the project and
upcoming tour.
"It was definitely a no-brainer to record with Derek again, especially when
we [Caedmon's Call] joined INO, which has been Webb's label for years," says
Cliff Young. "We all sat down one day and thought 'I wonder what it would
be like to make an album together'." "We have all grown so much over the
past six years, and I know for me [and I'm sure the others] it was a natural
process to switch to INO and then have Derek re-join us for this project and
upcoming tour.
Overdressed is a 12 song cd collection unlike any other Caedmon's Call
record, organically acoustic with emphasis on rhythm while maintaining
cleverly-written lyrics. All songs were co-wrote between Andrew Osenga,
Randall Goodgame, Derek Webb and Webb's wife, musician Sandra McCracken.
"The title Overdressed comes from lyrics in the song 'Trouble,'" says Derek
Webb. "It talks about how, if I'm honest, all my best attempts at being
good are a real mess. Just like the Garden of Eden, I try to cover myself
with so many different things. So, when I'm with Him, I feel so
overdressed."
Formerly with Essential Records, Caedmon's Call joined the INO roster of
artists in 2007. "I have long been an admirer of Caedmon's Call rich
musical legacy," says president of INO Records Jeff Moseley. "Now with the
addition of Derek Webb for this record, it just feels like a natural fit. I
am thrilled they are a part of the INO family and that we can share in the
future of Caedmon's Call."
Caedmon's Call will head out on a promotional tour in late summer before
headlining a Spring tour. These dates will be announced at a later time.
