HitnRun offers free download of
“Shot of Love”
To mark their return to the studio
to record new music for the first time in more than 20 years, Pennsylvania hard
rockers HitnRun are offering a free download of the track “Shot of Love” from
their self-titled debut for a limited time via Amazon Music and CD Baby.“It all
comes down to wanting more people to hear the band, especially now that we’ve
made the decision to carry on and record new music. For fans of bluesy, melodic
hard rock, we feel that HitnRun has a lot to offer,” singer Eric Montoya
explains.
Originally formed in 1991, HitnRun
gigged extensively throughout Pennsylvania and New Jersey before disbanding in
1995. With renewed interest in the band thanks to social media, the group
finally released their self-titled debut album digitally at the end of 2015. The
album met with great critical acclaim throughout the online hard rock community,
including excellent reviews from MelodicRock.it, Sleaze Roxx, and Metalglory.de.
HitnRun then signed with Denmark-based Lions Pride Music for the 2016 European
release of the physical CD of the album.
Jareth Grealish, the band’s
founder and lead guitarist, elaborated on the fan reaction to HitnRun’s debut,
“It’s been amazing. Having our music finally recognized by rock fans around the
world… it’s inspired us to create new music. Our label overseas has essentially
sold out of our CD, so we know there’s a larger market for us to reach. By
offering a free song to melodic hard rock fans everywhere we’re hoping to grow
our following while we work on our next record.”
For the past several months
Grealish and Montoya have been writing new material for HitnRun’s follow-up
release. The band returned to the studio this month to begin tracking new songs
with the help of drummer Johnny Dee (Britney Fox, Doro). Montoya describes the
new music as “classic HitnRun, but a bit bolder and more mature than the first
record.”
