Veteran Rocker, podcast host, songwriter and Foo Fighters guitarist Chris Shiflett has today released the new EP Starry Nights & Campfire Lights.

The EP features a country version of the Thin Lizzy classic ‘Cowboy Song’ as well as an Americana rendition of Hanoi Rocks’ glam rock anthem ‘Don’t You Ever Leave Me’, and previously unreleased live and acoustic versions of tracks from Lost At Sea, the highly acclaimed album released last year.

Also premiering today at 2pm PT/5pm ET will be ‘Live From Apogee Studio’, an intimate show originally recorded in September last year. Tune in HERE.

Revered as a modern-day guitar hero, the new album sees Shiflett splice up alt-country rock and guitar-driven grit with sharp songwriting and Americana undertones.

Shiflett also last year launched a new video series called ‘Shred with Shifty’ where he interviews some of the guitar greats, delving into their most iconic solos and the art of playing guitar. Guests so far have included the likes of Nile Rogers, Alex Lifeson (Rush), Rivers Cuomo (Weezer), Brad Paisley, Ace Frehley (KISS) and more. Head to Volume.com/shifty for more info.

The EP lands just ahead of his headline tour across the UK and Ireland beginning next week. Following in May, Shifflet will head up North to play half a dozen shows in and around the Bay Area including three stops in Napa, culminating with a solo set at the famed BottleRock Festival on May 24.
