“THE DAMN TRUTH (DELUXE GATEFOLD EDITION)” RELEASED 11 SEPTEMBER 2026 “The Damn Truth are an unstoppable force on the rise.” – Rock News Fresh from the success of their critically acclaimed, JUNO Award-nominated self-titled album, Canadian rock powerhouse The Damn Truth will release The Damn Truth (Deluxe Edition) worldwide on Friday 11 September 2026, marking the album’s first worldwide physical release. To celebrate, the band are shining a renewed spotlight on ‘Love Outta Luck’, one of the standout tracks from the album. Originally released as a single in September 2024, the song is available to stream now, alongside its official music video. The album was produced by the legendary Canadian Hall of Fame inductee and Grammy Award-winning record producer Bob Rock, whose credits include Metallica, Mötley Crüe, Skid Row, Bryan Adams, Loverboy, Aerosmith and Bon Jovi. The Damn Truth’s album was recorded at Bryan Adams’ studio The Warehouse in Vancouver. The Damn Truth – Lee-la Baum (lead vocals, guitar), Tom Shemer (lead guitar & backing vocals), PY Letellier (bass/backing vocals) and Dave Traina (drums/percussion & backing vocals) – ignite a kaleidoscopic rush of gutsy, revved-up modern rock, reimagining classic-rock ideals with fierce contemporary fire. THE DELUXE EDITION The Damn Truth (Deluxe Edition) will be available on CD and across four gatefold vinyl variants: classic black, coke bottle clear, gold, and red-and-white splatter. The expanded edition also features the bonus track ‘Be Somebody – Live at Hotel2Tango’, capturing the immediacy, power and musicianship at the heart of The Damn Truth’s live performances. Speaking about the deeply personal connections listeners have formed with the album, the band said: “Watching these songs find their way into your lives has been the greatest reward we’ve ever known as artists. Time and again, we’ve heard your stories, your interpretations, and the deeply personal connections you’ve forged with this music. That’s the real magic of rock & roll. Once the songs leave our hands, they belong to all of us.” The momentum shows no signs of slowing as The Damn Truth charge into another landmark year, bringing their electrifying live show to audiences across the UK, Europe and Canada. Highlights include high-profile special guest appearances on Europe’s The Final Countdown – 40th Anniversary Tour, alongside major festival slots and headline performances.
