JACK RUSSELL'S GREAT WHITE: Listen To Acoustic Version Of 'Lady Red Light' From 'Once Acoustically Bitten'

JACK RUSSELL’S GREAT WHITE is celebrating the 30th anniversary of GREAT WHITE‘s hit album “Once Bitten” with a tour and new acoustic album, “Once Acoustically Bitten”. The acoustic LP was supposed to be released on July 14, but the band “ran into some production issues,” causing the record to be delayed.

As a taste of what fans can expect from the upcoming effort, you can now listen to an acoustic version of the song “Lady Red Light”, taken from “Once Acoustically Bitten”. Check it out in the YouTube clip below.

JACK RUSSELL’S GREAT WHITE kicked off its U.S. tour on July 6. They will stay on the road through summer and into fall playing songs off their new acoustic release, the multi-platinum “Once Bitten” album and, on some shows, the entire “Once Bitten” LP from start to finish.

“The ‘Once Bitten’ album for me was the album that finally put us in the musical space that I felt the band should be in,” says lead singer Jack Russell. He goes on: “We had been searching prior to that… our first album was kind of similar to JUDAS PRIEST and our second album was very keyboard heavy. The ‘Once Bitten’ album hit and we all just knew this was our area, this was where we should be.

“This new acoustic record is an homage to thirty years of making music and thirty years since our first, big platinum album. Three decades later and we’re still able to go out there and sing and play for our fans. It’s a blessing.”

JACK RUSSELL’S GREAT WHITE‘s debut album, “He Saw it Comin'”, was released on January 27 via Frontiers Music Srl. The disc features Jack Russell alongside former GREAT WHITE bassist-turned-guitarist Tony Montana (as a guitar player and keyboardist), Dan McNay (MONTROSE) on bass, Robby Lochner (FIGHT) on guitar and Dicki Fliszar (BRUCE DICKINSON) on drums.

JACK RUSSELL’S GREAT WHITE is not to be confused with the current touring and recording version of GREAT WHITE, which features Mark Kendall (guitar), Scott Snyder (bass), Audie Desbrow (drums), Michael Lardie (guitar, keyboards) and Terry Ilous (lead vocals).
