Adrian Smith + Richie Kotzen – ‘Better Days’ Song; New EP Set for Record Store Day Black Friday Release !
Smith/Kotzen, the duo comprised of Iron Maiden guitarist Adrian Smith and blues icon Richie Kotzen (The Winery Dogs, ex-Mr. Big), have just unveiled the Better Days EP and a music video for the title track.
The four-track EP will be released on Nov. 26 in conjunction with Record Store Day’s ‘Black Friday’ event and comes on the heels of the group’s self-titled debut album which came out earlier this year, led by the tracks « Taking My Chances, » « Scars, » « Running » and « Solar Fire. »
The first two songs, « Better Days » and « Got a Hold of Me » were written in April earlier this year as the two seized the opportunity to reconvene at The House recording studio in Los Angeles, while the final two tracks on the EP were recorded at Windermere on Turks and Caicos Islands, where the guitarists wrote and recorded the debut record last year.
