  • Collective Soul
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DECEMBER 3, 2008 BOULEVARD CASINO & RIVER ROCK CASINO RESORT PRESENT COLLECTIVE SOUL FRIDAY, MARCH 13 – RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE SATURDAY, MARCH 14 – RIVER ROCK SHOW THEATRE Collective Soul, taken from a line in Ayn Rand's book, “The Fountainhead,” were formed in the small town of Stockbridge, Georgia in the early 90’s by principal songwriter Ed Roland (lead vocals/keyboards/guitars), guitarists Dean Roland and Joel Kosche, rhythm section Will Turpin (bass/percussion) and Shane Evans (drums/percussion). Released in 1993 on the Atlanta indie label Rising Storm, Hints Allegations and Things Left Unsaid proved popular enough on the local level that it was picked up the following year by Atlantic Records. They then released the eponymous sophomore effort which featured the hits "World I Know" and "December" once again going multi- platinum. In 2000, they released Blender which included “Perfect Day,” a duet with Elton John. The group returned to their roots in 2004 releasing the stripped-down and dynamic Youth on its own El Music Group imprint. It was also during this time that they welcomed new guitar player Joel Kosche and drummer Ryan Hoyle. The band’s eighth studio album, Afterwords which was released in 2007 and features the singles "Hollywood” and “All That I Know” is going to be re-released on December 9th to all retail and digital outlets … the album was originally released via exclusive deals with Target and iTunes. The brand new edition includes for the very first time three solo songs by Roland. Currently they have a song titled “Tremble For My Beloved” featured in the new blockbuster film, Twilight as well as on the accompanying chart topping soundtrack.

  • Collective Soul's Ed Roland
    COLLECTIVE SOUL’S ED ROLAND: More Rock, More Riffs, More Fun IT’S BEEN MORE THAN 15 YEARS SINCE COLLECTIVE SOUL wowed the music world with Hints Allegations and Things Left Unsaid , a debut that spawned multiple hit singles, including the modern rock classic “Shine.” Now the band is back in the studio completing their eighth album, Rabbit, and Ed Roland, the band’s singer and principal songwriter, promises it will resonate with fans of their breakthrough disc. “We tour a lot, and that guitar has really hung in there. It's, like, my little baby blue!” “Our longtime fans will really appreciate it,” says Ed. “It was fun experimenting with loops and things like that on our last few albums, and I appreciated the guys letting me explore the ‘80s influences I grew up on. But now we’re going back to the basics. The sound is more basic. More rock. More riffs.” Ed, who plays guitar and piano, caught the songwriter bug early on. “I’m from a small town in Georgia. My dad was the town minister, but he was pretty hip. He took me to my first concert: Johnny Cash. He took me to everything from Liberace to the Kinks. He was very supportive of my music and always wanted me to do what I loved.” 12 13 One life-changing inspiration was Elton John’s Greatest Hits . “Elton looked so cool with his white hat and white suit,” Roland recalls. “As soon as I put that record on, I wanted to be a songwriter like Elton and Bernie Taupin.

    COURTS TO CONSIDER THE BIG QUESTION... HOW MUCH OF LANIER IS AVAILABLE FOR WATER SUPPLY? fter 18 years of comprehensive study, negotiation and litigation, the key question in the tri-state water wars should fi nally be A answered next year by U.S. District Court Judge Paul A. Magnuson: How much of Lake Lanier is available for metro Atlanta water supply? In an order issued in August, Judge Magnuson said the answer to this ques- tion may render other disagreements in the water war litigation “obsolete, or at the very least may invalidate” them. The answer to this question could also determine the region’s ability to control the water it already has (about 13% of the storage in Lake Lanier), as well as any additional supply it would like to have allocated from Lanier—22% of the lake’s storage. Although the federal lake, built and operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps), was authorized by Congress in the 1940s to generate hydropower, control fl oods, and fl oat barges downstream, Georgia has long assumed that it could also use Lanier as the primary water supply for metro Atlanta. Photo Credit: Tom Wilson Photo Credit: Tom On an average summer day, more than 160 million gallons of water are al. The day after Magnuson’s August order, Georgia fi led a petition to the withdrawn from Lake Lanier and about 350 million gallons from the river U.S. Supreme Court asking it to validate the state’s 2003 agreement which downstream of Buford Dam to supply 3.5 million people in metro Atlanta.
