Foghat has announced the upcoming release of Live & Loud Across the U.S.A.<\/a><\/em>, which will arrive Oct. 30. You can hear “My Babe,” the first single, below.<\/p>\n

The blues-based rock legends, still led by stalwart founding drummer Roger Earl, recorded Live & Loud Across the U.S.A.<\/em> during their touring runs in 2024 and 2025. It was an expansive set of dates that also took them to additional territories like Canada, Mexico and Europe.<\/p>\n

They show no signs of slowing down, either (insert your own “Slow Ride” joke here). The ongoing Twang & Bang trek will resume Aug. 27 in Lincoln Park, Michigan and they’re already logging concert plans all of the way into 2027.<\/p>\n

What to Expect From the New Live Album<\/h3>\n

Live & Loud Across the U.S.A.<\/em> will be available on triple vinyl. The first two discs are presented on gold vinyl. The third LP is on red vinyl and features a special reissue of the fan favorite Shaken & Stirred<\/em> album by Earl & the Agitators<\/a>, which is making its vinyl debut.<\/p>\n

“The performances on this album were recorded in cities across the United States during the past two years,” Earl details in the sleeve notes for the upcoming release. “We didn\u2019t set out to make a live record–we simply wanted to capture Foghat doing what we\u2019ve always loved to do: playing live. Most of these songs have never been released as official live recordings before, and I think they show where the band is today.”<\/p>\n

“For the second disc, we wanted to include something that many people may not realize is also part of the Foghat story,” he added. “Earl and The Agitators isn\u2019t another band \u2013 it\u2019s us.”<\/p>\n

“Whether you know us as Foghat or Earl & The Agitators, it\u2019s always been about playing music we believe in and sharing it with people who love it as much as we do,” he continued. “Thank you for coming along with us on this incredible journey. We couldn\u2019t have done it without your support, and we hope these recordings bring you as much enjoyment as we\u2019ve had making them.”<\/p>\n
