HELLYEAH ANNOUNCE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED NEW ALBUM WELCOME HOME OUT SEPTEMBER 27TH FEATURING THE LATE VINNIE PAUL’S FINAL RECORDINGS

After this weekend’s courageous and emotional sold-out concert in Las Vegas celebrating the life of Vinnie Paul, hard rock purveyors HELLYEAH announce today the title of their sixth studio album, Welcome Home, and new release date, Friday September 27th, via Eleven Seven Music.

The new video for the title track will be available Friday May 17th, and can be preordered here with an immediate download of the track.

Welcome Home, the eagerly anticipated new album featuring the late Vinnie Paul’s final recordings, will unleash 10 tracks, driven by their love, loyalty, reverence and respect for their fallen brother, including the first fiery song, ‘333’, recently released. Watch the official music video below.

In a poignant moment during the set, Las Vegas Review-Journal columnist John Kats (Katsilometes) presented the band with an official proclamation from the Clark County Board of Commissioners declaring May 11^th 2019 as “Vinnie Paul Day”, for his incomparable role as a musician and helping make the Entertainment Industry in the City of Las Vegas what it is today.

A portion of the proceeds from the sold-out show, were donated to The American Heart Association in honour of Vinnie Paul.

The band are now set to head off on an 18-city headline tour in the US this July which will culminate in a special hometown celebration on August 17th in Texas.

As bassist Kyle Sanders so succinctly stated: “While Vinnie Paul is obviously irreplaceable, one thing we can’t not do is tour. As easy as it would be to say we’re not going on the road, we have to. Vinnie would be extremely disappointed in us if we didn’t promote this record properly. He’d be pissed off at all of us for putting all this work into finishing the record and then just letting it sit there on the shelf while we put a couple of songs to radio and whatever…and we know that”.

HELLYEAH was formed in 2006 by Pantera founder/drummer Vinnie Paul, singer Chad Gray (Mudvayne), and guitarist Tom Maxwell (Nothingface) with bassist Kyle Sanders (Bloodsimple) and guitarist Christian Brady, who joined in 2014. The band has released five albums, culminating in the #2 Hard Rock album release UNDEN!ABLE in June 2016. Their final album with Vinnie Paul, Welcome Home – a truly stunning album that does both Vinnie’s memory and groundbreaking legacy proud – is slated for release on Friday, September 27th.
