"Fresno based legends Six Ounce Gloves releasing new album March 22, 10:59 AM"

The very popular central valley based hard-rock band Six Ounce Gloves has taken a break from the hectic touring they usually voluntarily endure to do something just as meaningful; record a new album. This news comes after the recent announcement that they will not be playing any live shows for a few months and answers the question as to why.

The band has been touring up and down the western united states for the past two years playing fan favorites from the two albums that have kept them popular throughout the nation with little to no breaks making eager fans ask "when will we see a new album?". With the addition of two brand new songs to the set-list and this recent announcement the answer to that is now "very soon".

The band has posted on various social networking sites and sent messages to fans stating that this new album will be exactly what one would expect from the gloves and will also include various cover songs that will be played live as well, making it possibly the most anticipated release from the band since 2008's, "This time for Change" which was the first album to include newest member drummer extraordinaire Lee Tabor and the hardest, fastest, release from the band to date.

There is no word on when said album will be released, but based off of previous album release times it can be expected to be within fans hands by the end of the year and a supporting tour will likely follow the release. - Fresno Local Music Examiner
