Currently on the road with the Dave Matthews Band, Escovedo and band will bring their enigmatic and engaging live performance of punk rock and stirring strings to 'Late Night With Conan O'Brien' on Friday, June 20th followed by a live performance on 'The Today Show' on Tuesday, June 24th - the day of the album's release.
The 13 original tracks on 'Real Animal' unravel Escovedo's musical autobiography while presenting him as a masterful American musician whose palette encompasses eloquent string quintets and shattering blasts of punk rock. 'Real Animal' was produced by Tony Visconti (David Bowie, T.'Rex, Thin Lizzy) and features a band of frequent collaborators, including David Pulkingham (guitar), Josh Gravelin (bass), Hector Munoz (drums), Susan Voelz (violin), Brian Standefer (cello) and special guest Chuck Prophet (guitar).
'Real Animal' marks Escovedo's second release for the EMI-based Manhattan/Back Porch Records.
