FORMER BAD CO. GUITARIST DAVE COLWELL LAUNCHES NEW BAND & ALBUM RELEASE WITH PLEDGE MUSIC

DAVE ‘BUCKET’ COLWELL, former guitarist with British hard rock super-group BAD COMPANY and HUMBLE PIE, has teamed up with fan-driven platform Pledge Music to launch the release of 20 GOOD SUMMERS, a brand new album by his new classic/blues rock band BUCKETS REBEL HEART.
After his last solo album, 2008’s Guitars, Beers & Tears featuring several star guest performers, this new album 20 GOOD SUMMERS is a collection of cohesive songs from the brand new outfit to be produced by Grammy-nominated rock legend CHRIS TSANGARIDES.
Alongside Colwell on lead-guitar, the lineup is completed by The Voice finalist ADAM BARRON (lead vocals), ROSS McEWEN (guitar), TOM SWANN (bass) and PAUL ‘TAFF’ EDWARDS (drums and co-writer). 


The album is set for a digital and physical outing via the band’s newly launched Pledge Music campaign in September, with plans for a UK tour afoot post-release.
Check out a trailer video at the band’s Pledge project page here:
