<b>Joe Elliott</b> (Def Leppard) to get involved. Joe formed the <b>Down ‘n’ Outz</b> with The Quireboys' <b>Paul Guerin</b> (Guitar),
<b>Guy Griffin</b> (Guitar) and <b>Keith Weir</b> (keyboards), plus <b>Phil Martin</b> (drums). Together they looked to bring songs by Mott The Hoople and spin off projects of Mott, Ian Hunter and British Lions to a wider audience.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<b>Down ‘n’ Outz</b> supported Mott The Hoople at one of the band’s five Hammersmith Apollo shows, which garnered much interest with fans. The fan demand eventually led to the bandlooking to create an album. 2011 saw the release of the critically acclaimed
debut <b><i>My Re-Generation</i></b> through<b> Bludgeon Riffola</b> <b>via Mailboat Records</b> (Joe Perry, Walter Becker, Chris Isaak, Jeff Bridges).
<b><i>My Re-Generation</i></b><i> </i>included the singles “<b>England Rocks</b>” and “<b>Overnight Angels</b>,” that reached No 4 and No 1 respectively on the US Media Base Rock chart -keeping Eric Clapton’s new single off the top of the chart for 2 weeks.
The band then released a live DVD taken from those initial shows called “<b>Live At Hammersmith Apollo</b>.” The new album
<b><i>The Further Adventures of…</i></b> picks up where the live DVD left off and features the driving groove of album opener - and first single - “<b>Rock And Roll Queen</b>”(<b>pre-order the album

plus the drum heavy song “<b>Violence</b>.” This LP is set to bring out a rich and much loved seam of British songwriting to a whole new audience. The album was produced by
<b>Joe Elliott</b> with co-production by <b>Ronan McHugh</b>. The album was recorded at
