NEW JERSEY-BASED REALITY SUITE RELEASE ACOUSTIC ALBUM “CLOSURE” AS PART OF THE “AWAKEN” VINYL BUNDLE
Album release: June 2022
Label: DI Records
Format: CD Exclusive
Female-fronted New Jersey melodic rock band Reality Suite will release their first acoustic album, “Closure,” a followup to 2019’s critically acclaimed rock album, “Awaken.” Marking a shift in the group’s electrically-charged distinct sound, you can hear the advanced single, “Sleep With Ghosts” here.
“Closure” is a gesture of gratitude towards Reality Suite supporters worldwide. After a series of dynamic concerts
and online unplugged performances over the years, fans had repeatedly requested a formal acoustic album. In 2021, while the future of public performances remained uncertain due to COVID-19 cancellations and restrictions, Reality Suite began recording stripped down and reimagined performances of popular tracks and deep cuts from their first two studio albums, Skinn (2015) and Awaken (2019.)
FAN CHOSEN TRACKLIST
The tracklist of “Closure” is chosen by fans via social media polls that were posted in August of 2021. To make this collection even more special, Reality Suite decided to introduce two new songs - “Evolution Queen” and “Sleep with Ghosts.” (Read about “Sleep with Ghosts” here) This is the complete Closure tracklist:
