</span></b>album <b><i>Stay Golden </i></b>(Primary Wave Music).<b><i> </i></b>The tour kicks off June 27<sup>th</sup> in<b> New York City

</b>The full list of tour dates below. <span style="color:black"><a href="http://soundcloud.com/user746758152/taddy-porter-emma-lee">PRESS HERE</a> to listen to the band’s new single
<b>“Emma Lee,” </b>which heads to AAA radio on June 17<sup>th</sup>.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The band has been doing what they can to support their home state in the Moore hurricane recovery effort, recently playing several benefit concerts including the Music4Moore show alongside Wanda Jackson, JD McPherson and Graham Colton.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Co-produced by <b>Dave Cobb</b> (Chris Cornell, Shooter Jennings) and <b>Mark Neill</b>(The Black Keys, Dan Auerbach), <b><i>Stay Golden</i></b> finds Taddy
Porter re-energized and cracking open the heart of the band like never before, flooding these 11 lo-fi songs with elements of raw rock, warm Motown soul, Southern blues and psychedelic pop to create their most expansive sound to date. <b><i>Filter </i></b>called
the album <i>“imaginative…everything Taddy Porter touches turns to gold…”</i> and <b><i>Music Connection</i></b> hailed frontman <b>Andy Brewer</b>’s<b> </b>vocal style as<b> </b><i>“every bit as unique as luminaries like Johnny Rivers and Alex Chilton.”</i></span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center;background:white"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black">“[‘Fever’ is] in tune with the soul revivalism of the Heavy or Fitz and the Tantrums, with its primal guitar line leading and organ echoing
in the background…[it] unfurls like a Kings of Leon track with a little more soul, especially when frontman Andy Brewer belts out its title in the chorus.” -<b><i>Billboard</i></b><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center;background:white"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black">“The songs are tight, tough and informed by the best aspects of garage rockers that yearn for the arena. Echoes of the Yardbirds, old Deep
Purple, the Kinks and even Motown keep the retro fires burning. Fun and frisky…the quartet writes tough hook driven burners…” <b><i>American Songwriter</i></b><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center;background:white"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black">“…British Invasion meets Motown soul, with a healthy dose of Southern blues thrown in for good measure. [<i>Stay Golden</i>] does something
not many albums released these days can do: deserve repeated listenings. It's a true testament to the songwriting, performances and production skills and a welcome throwback to the sound of the '60s.” - <b><i>Guitar World<o:p></o:p></i></b></span></p>
