WARNER MUSIC CANADA TO RELEASE NEW LIVE CD/DVD BY LEGENDARY ROCK BAND PRETENDERS
Posted 01/15/10
PRETENDERS: LIVE IN LONDON
WILL BE RELEASED ON FEBRUARY 9TH, 2010
Warner Music Canada is set to release a new, live CD/DVD by legendary rock band Pretenders, Pretenders: Live in London, on February 9th, 2010. This electrifying, 100-minute release will be available as a CD /DVD, as well as a stand alone Blu-Ray disc. The Pretenders - Chrissie Hynde, Martin Chambers, James Walbourne, Nick Wilkinson, and Eric Heywood - perform their biggest hits, including "Kid," "Back On The Chain Gang," "Middle Of The Road," "Brass In Pocket" and many more. The DVD and Blu-Ray feature 24 live tracks. Pretenders: Live in London captures the band's energy at its purest form.
With millions of albums sold and their place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame solidified, the Pretenders are a special band with a special place in history. Pretenders: Live in London captures one of their many electrifying performances from their 2009 world tour.
Produced by Montreal-based FogoLabs, the concert was filmed at Shepherds Bush Empire by Grammy, Juno and Emmy Award winning producers and directors Pierre & Francois Lamoureux. The video was shot without the use of cranes, dollies or steadicams to create movement. Instead it is about the band, giving it all and not holding back any as it does any night when they hit the stage. The filmmakers' objective was to stay out of the way and capture it within the frame. The band played brilliantly that night and what can be heard and seen on this release is an honest reproduction of that moment in time. There are no overdubs made to the music and no fake crowd noises added. The editing is made to savor moments and the music was mixed and mastered for it to breathe.
