Alan Doyle, actor, producer, newly minted best-selling author, and best known as lead singer for Newfoundland’s beloved Great Big Sea these past 20+ years, is set to release his second solo album, "So Let’s Go," on January 20. The title track and lead single, "So Let’s Go," is a rousing rallying cry that’s only further proof of Doyle’s ability to draw the listener under his banner. Made in collaboration with Thomas "Tawgs" Salter (Lights, Walk Off The Earth), Jerrod Bettis (Adele, Serena Ryder), Gordie Sampson (Keith Urban, Willie Nelson), and Joe Zook (OneRepublic, Katy Perry), the album follows Doyle’s first solo outing, "Boy On Bridge," released in 2012. “If there’s an overarching theme on this record, it’s one of optimism … not that this is in contrast to my previous doom-laden songs!” laughs Doyle, who says this album is freer than "Boy On Bridge" in the respect to being open to all influences. “On my last solo record I wanted to explore musical backyards of friends of mine in different parts of the musical world. It was as much a physical as a musical journey away from home. On 'So Let’s Go,' folks will hear much more stuff from my backyard and all the traditional and Celtic influences I grew up with, married with the most contemporary collaborators out there.”
