Album Description

December 2004 found Wideawake back in Austin after wrapping up in the studio for their fourth full length album with friend and producer Roy Salmond. Mixing engineer Greg Reely has been working closely with the band and has been an incredible addition to this project. His credits include Sarah McLauchlan and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider soundtrack. As songwriter and lead singer, Scott Leger offers insightful and sincere perspectives that deal uniquely with human issues and internal struggles. His passionate vocals lead the way as Wideawake creates a blend of modern rock and edgy acoustic pop that the band referes to as "emotional pop-rock" Look for the band on the road for most of 2005.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Excellent!.......2006-06-02

I've loved WideAwake's music for years, but this album is incredible. I've had their CD in my car for months now, and while I take out and change all of the other ones I own, WideAwake's never gets old.
They have such a broad appeal to all ages and yet manage to stay up in the forefront of what's hot on the music scene - it's a gift that they have cultivated and used to the best of their talents.
Buy this album. You will never feel that you have wasted your money.

Okay, so I've been a fan of this band for the last four years. I own their first two cd's (Bigger Than Ourselves & Thread: Wideawake). With each cd they get better & better. I didnt think that it was possible. With the unique sound of Scott's voice, and the talent of the rest of the band there is no doubt in my mind that these guys are going straight to the top, and FAST.
Listening to them live takes their music to another level. You can tell that they feel the music, that it is a part of them. The lyrics can be deep (Stay, Misunderstood, Broken) or silly (She Likes Purple) but you are drawn in each time.
This cd is on a constant spin in my cd player, at work, at home, in the car. I cannot get enough of it.
