Grammy and Dove-nominated pop/rockers All Star United have just released "Lets Get Crazy," a 5-song collection of b-sides, rarities, and previously unreleased material. The project, available exclusively online through the bands website (www.allstarunited.com) and select other sites, was designed as a fan-focused release in advance of the bands brand new album, already in progress.

"It has been a long time since we have put out a completely brand new album, "says All Star lead singer, Ian Eskelin. "Since the release of Smash Hits, we have had a bunch of songs that we knew we were not going to put on the new album. Rather than let them go to waste, we figured we would put it out there for the fans to enjoy as a limited edition collectors item."

The band is offering "Lets Get Crazy" as a "thank you" to fans for their longstanding support: "We have been blessed with having the greatest fans in the world, "says Eskelin. "They have always been incredibly supportive. We knew that they were getting anxious for a new All Star record. "Lets Get Crazy‚" kind of became a special ‚"thank you" project to hold people over until the new stuff shipped out."

The material on "Lets Get Crazy" is a collection of songs written after the release of the bands critically acclaimed sophomore release, International Anthems For The Human Race, and the Smash Hits greatest hits compilation. Included on this project are the songs "Lets Get Crazy," a full-bore rocker and the projects namesake, "Satellite," a metaphorical song about the surrounding love of God, the devil-bashing "Big Mistake," "Fall On Me," a love song from God to us, and "Song For The Broken Hearted," a sweeping musical movement offering encouragement to the struggling believer.

In addition to the release of this limited edition EP (only 1,000 total units were pressed), the band has been hard at work on their brand new, full length album. Recording in various studios throughout Nashville, the band has already completed eight (8) songs for this as-yet untitled release. The process of writing for this new project has resulted in a renewed passion and purpose for the band: "The writing and recording of this new album has been an amazing process," says Eskelin. "I can honestly say that I have never had this much fun putting a record together. Everything has been so smooth and easy. The songs have so much energy in them reminiscent of rock legends like the Rolling Stones and Kinks, with a little Elton John thrown in for good measure. I think that people are going to be blown away. These are songs that have definitely come from the heart."

All Star United plan to complete the new album in early February and are tentatively scheduled for a late spring release. Worldwide touring is set to begin sometime in March. With growing speculation about the bands new record label home, the band remains tight-lipped: "That information will be given out on a need-to-know basis," smiles Eskelin. "Lets just say, the best is yet to come."
