Dove Award nominated Krystal Meyers has announced the release date of her second album on Essential Records, Dying For A Heart. The September 19 release was produced by The Wizardz of Oz production team (Avril Lavigne, Liz Phair) and artist/producer Ian Eskelin with new original songs written by Krystal.
"I am so excited about this new record," according to Meyers. "I had to write the majority of this one on the road and in between shows, which really challenged me lyrically. There are a few songs that are controversial, dealing with real issues facing young people today. I wanted to write those songs to challenge the youth of my generation. I feel the songs on this project have matured both stylistically and lyrically. The rock songs are heavier and we have some prettier, more melodic moments as well."
Dying For A Heart is comprised of the following ten tracks: Collide, Live, The Beauty of Grace, The Situation, Love Is On the Run, Only You Make Me Happy, Together, Shake It Off, Stand and Scream, and Hallelujah.
In addition to completing her second record, Meyers has wrapped on a flurry of activity including: graduating high school, performing as part of the Winter Jam Tour, presenting at the GMA Awards, and a trip to Japan.
Meyers delivered her anticonformity message to Japan between March 25 and April 1, visiting with key media and performing a show for over 500 contest winners. While overseas, Krystal interviewed with MTV Japan and did a photo shoot for Nylon Magazine Japan, of which she will appear on the cover of the June issue. Meyers self-titled debut album will be released through BMG Japan on May 24. She will return to Japan during the first week of June for additional radio and retail appearances.
The Winter Jam Tour with Krystal Meyers, the Newsboys and Tobymac, among others, saw thirty-one cities between January and March of 2006. Meyers will be performing this summer at Cornerstone, Atlanta Fest, Creation East, Creation West, Rock the Light, and Rock the Universe, among other festivals. Additional dates will be posted at www.krystalmeyers.com.
Since the U.S. release of her debut album on Essential Records, seventeen year-old Meyers has garnered a Dove Award nomination for New Artist of the Year, had three Top 10 singles (The Way To Begin, My Savior, and Anticonformity), and performed before more than 400,000 people.
