ADIOS: The Greatest Hits, will take fans on a trip back through the impressive career of Audio Adrenaline with 17 tracks, including 12 No. 1 radio hits like "Pierced," "Leaving 99," "Beautiful," "Ocean Floor" and "Hands And Feet." The recording will also feature two brand new songs. The first new song, "Goodbye," released to radio June 9. The second song is a cover of The Alarm’s "Blaze Of Glory."
The companion ADIOS DVD to be a part of a special edition ADIOS package will feature a third newly recorded song, a cover of the classic Charlie Peacock song, "Down In The Lowlands." The DVD will also include five Audio Adrenaline videos, live performance footage and interviews from artists impacted by Audio Adrenaline. Some of the artists that will be participating are MercyMe, Pillar, Relient K, Steven Curtis Chapman and tobyMac. Each of these artists will share tour experiences and favorite memories of Audio Adrenaline.
But AudioA isn't saying good-bye quietly with only a release. The band's final touring schedule includes performing at all the major summer festivals one last time and performing on a 35-city tour with MercyMe this fall (Sept-Nov).
Retiring due to front man Mark Stuart’s ongoing vocal problems, AudioA has made a major mark in the Christian music world since 1991. The group has sold over three million records and garnered 18 No. 1 singles and four Dove Awards. The band’s Bloom recording was certified Gold by the RIAA in 1999 and they were awarded the esteemed “Song of the Decade” title in the 90s for “Big House” by CCM Magazine.
The band is also well known for its humanitarian aid and will continue its Hands and Feet Project, a non-profit organization and orphanage they formed dedicated to the health, welfare and education of orphaned children of Haiti. Additionally, band members remain heavily involved with the label they founded, Flicker Records.
