Iconic star of the screen and stage and multi-platinum selling singer David Hasselhoff will be releasing his new album Open Your Eyes on September 27. The album is a new peak in an already illustrious career finding The Hoff joined by a host of equally legendary guest musicians including such talents as film composer Tyler Bates, producer Todd Rundgren, country singer Charlie Daniels, and The Stoogesā guitarist James Williamson who joined Hasselhoff on the albumās first single, the titular track āOpen Your Eyes!ā
Now, Hasselhoff is ready to release his next single, this time backed by superstar guitarist Elliot Easton of The Cars on a superb cover of The Jesus & Mary Chainās neo-psych stunner āHead On.ā The song was a major hit for the Reid brothers back in 1989 and Easton and Hasselhoffās version remain true to the songās overall structure while adding a bit more swagger courtesy of Hasselhoffās excellent vocal performance and Eastonās precise playing. Eastonās extraordinary skill as a guitarist helped propel his band The Cars into last yearās induction class to the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame. Sadly, the music world mourned the passing of Carsā frontman Ric Ocasek earlier this month.
Meanwhile, The Hoff continues his preparations for the upcoming 30th anniversary celebration of the fall of the Berlin Wall with a much anticipated tour through Germany, Austria & Switzerland beginning October 2!
