MAD SEASON: RE-ISSUING "ABOVE"

MAD SEASON, the 90's rock band featuring members of  PEARL JAM, SCREAMING TREE's and late ALICE IN CHAINS vocalist Layne Staley may re issue the bands 1995 release "Above", unleash a live release and some unreleased outtakes the vault.

FROM PULSE OF RADIO: McCready said, "We were trying to do another record, but it just didn't work, Layne went off and did ALICE IN CHAINS and then he died. So, what happened was, I had to change the band name to DISINFORMATION. From the DISINFORMATION sessions there are probably twelve songs, and out of that, probably eight that are pretty great. They need to be edited, but they're all music, so we're trying to find singers that are up to the caliber of Layne to do justice to it."

McCready added that he hopes to have the singers in place soon and get the material into the hands of fans before the end of the year.

MAD SEASON disbanded in 1999 after the death of bassist John Baker Saunders as Layne Staley died three years later in 2002.
