Hugely acclaimed BritCal guitar supremo Stephen Dale Petit has announced the July 19th 2010 release of his new album 'The Crave' through Universal Music/Absolute.
One of the first singles from the album will be 'California' which is released in June.
The Crave follows Petit’s phenomenally well-received debut Guitararama, which was awarded the accolade of Guitar Magazine’s 2008 Album of the Year.
He will also be touring and the tour will kick off with a London 100 Club launch (featuring special surprise guests), a prestigious appearance at Glastonbury 2010’s new Blues & Jazz Stage, and be followed by an O2 Academy tour:

The Crave, which contains some ferocious, rocking New Blues monsters alongside updated classics by the likes of Robert Johnson, Fleetwood Mac, Little Willie John and Albert King ('updates of classic blues songs often don’t work but this one certainly does' Paul Jones, BBC Radio 2), sees Ian (Travis, Clash, Manics, Fall, RHCP) Grimble share production along with the Chapel Studios, Lincoln hit factory team behind recent Arctic Monkeys, Editors and Kaiser Chiefs successes.
