Ed Kowalczyk, legendary lead singer and songwriter of the multi-Platinum rock band Live, releases his first solo album, Alive. The album was recorded in Austin, TX at Wire Recording Studios with producer CJ Eiriksson (U2, Blue October, Matchbox Twenty). The 12-song album features Ed Kowalczyk at his best - ferocious yet passionate, while retaining the anthemic and spiritualsongwriting he's always been known for. Fans both old and new will be immediately drawn to the first single "Grace" - a soaring, hard-hitting song destined to be a rock radio staple. Alive also features a songwriting collaboration with friend Chris Daughtry on the driving rock track "Drink (Everlasting Love)."
