(Chicago, IL) - The Steepwater Band, a blaring rock 'n' roll group from the windy city has announced the release of their new greatest hits album. Diamond Days: The Best of The Steepwater Band 2006-2014 will be out on 2/17 via the band's new label Sun Pedal Recordings (Warner Music Group). They asked their fans to help them make the tough decision of which songs would make the cut and now that all the responses have been collected, they are proud to bring you a true "best of." Today, they team up with Guitar World to premiere a new version of the fan favorite "Hard As Stone."

In addition to remastering songs that encompass the last eight years of the band's career and the new version of "Hard As Stone," they recorded a brand new track called "Silver Lining." The record will be available digitally and on CD with a vinyl release in April. All three are currently available for pre-order and for the next 24 hours the band is offering a 10% discount on all puchases with the coupon code "diamond." All orders come with an instant download of "Hard As Stone (2015)."

"Silver Lining" and "Hard As Stone (2015)" will be the first studio recordings with the band's newest member, guitarist Eric Saylors. The "best of" will be a sneak peek of the group's new sound before they release a brand new full-length album next year. The new full-length (as well as the "best of") will be recorded at Crushtone Studios in Cleveland, OH with platinum producer Jim Wirt (Fiona Apple, Incubus).

About The Steepwater Band: Formed in Chicago back in 1998, The Steepwater Band’s signature sound is a nod to early British blues, combined with a modern, raw and gutsy musical approach. Founding membersJeff Massey (Vocal, Guitar), Tod Bowers (Bass), and Joseph Winters (Drums) have a synergy that comes from years of playing together. Then in early 2012, the long-time trio was joined by Eric Saylors (Guitar, Backing Vocal) who brought an added depth to the live sound. The band has maintained a grueling schedule throughout the last 16 years, averaging about 140 shows per year. After touring and sharing the stage with acts such as Gov't Mule,Buddy Guy and Cheap Trick, they signed to Sun Pedal Recordings to release Diamond Days: The Best of The Steepwater Band 2006-2014. The compilation will be released in early 2/17/15 and feature songs spanning the last eight years of the band’s career including a re-recorded version of the fan favorite “Hard As Stone” and a new track called "Silver Lining.”
