The post Collective Soul Release Lead Single “Mother’s Love” from Upcoming Double Album: Stream appeared first on Consequence.

Collective Soul have offered up the lead single “Mother’s Love” from their upcoming double album Here to Eternity (out May 17th).

The track falls on the grungier side of Collective Soul’s musical spectrum. Centered around a thick blues guitar lick, the song also sports the band’s signature pop hooks and big harmonies — an apt choice for a first single, as it provides a complete cross-section of Collective Soul’s long-established style. The recording also touts a notable guest appearance from Paul McCartney guitarist Brian Ray on slide guitar.

As for the upcoming double LP, Here to Eternity was recorded and self-produced with co-producer Shawn Grove at Elvis Presley’s estate in Palm Springs, California, making Collective Soul the only other artist to ever record at the historical landmark.

“I happened to be walkin’ down the street and I had met [Paul McCartney guitarist] Brian Ray a couple of times,” Collective Soul vocalist Ed Roland said via a press release. “I saw him and was like, ‘Brian, hey man. Why don’t you come over and break bread? We’re up at Elvis’ house.’”

On convincing Ray to contribute to the sessions for “Mother’s Love” on short notice, Roland added: “I’m gettin’ pretty sneaky in my old age.”

Following the release of Here to Eternity, Collective Soul will head out to support Hootie and the Blowfish on a North American tour this summer (get tickets here).
