ICED EARTH mastermind Jon Schaffer has developed a new project, SONS OF LIBERTY, with the purpose of spreading awareness about the current state of affairs worldwide. Schaffer’s goal for this project is not to sell records, t-shirts or tickets, but rather wake people up and to get them to start researching and talking with each other.
Schaffer further states: “I’m proud to finally see the physical release of Brush-Fires of The Mind happen. This is all about the message, so please spread the word!”
Schaffer handles all vocals and instrumentation for Sons Of Liberty, but the effort also features guest solos by legendary producer Jim Morris, Iced Earth guitarist Troy Seele and world-class bassist, Ruben Drake.
Born from Schaffer’s desire to stimulate curiosity about a pattern of global banking corruption that is undermining the independence of people and their countries, Sons Of Liberty “aims to spearhead a multi-faceted and peaceful resistance of the tyranny being wrought every day on regular people.”
Iced Earth has confirmed four special North American shows this fall. Meant as an “Escape From The Studio,” these exclusive dates will also get fans the chance to experience Sons Of Liberty on stage for their first-ever live performances.
Dates include:
September
10 – Washington DC – 9:30 Club
21 – Chicago IL – House of Blues
23 – New York NY – Nokia Theater Times Square
25 – West Hollywood CA – House of Blues.
