Set to be released on June 1 via Tinderbox Music, “We have a bevy of fantastic guest artists on Unity, and we will announce them shortly,” Shinno said. “We have the track list done, and it’s a great bunch of songs for the album that sits in the middle of the American Dreams trilogy of three albums: 1) American Dreams 2) Unity 3) Power to
the People.” Shinno notes there will be additional musicians augmenting the songs. “We are recording the album with a live string quartet with arrangements by Peter Sprague,” he said. Mastering on Unity will be handled by legendary engineer Bernie Grundman (Steely Dan, Michael Jackson, Bowie...). In the meantime, the group has released a live video single, “Dance Club.” Hemisphere has major plans for a special post album release event, ART + DANCE, more info TBA. “Don’t miss this show because we are rollin’ the dice, and it will be over the top, both sonically and visually!” Shinno said. www.hemisphereband.com
