"While I continue the work on my next record, due out later this year, 'These Days' will finally get the full release we always hoped it would have," says McGee of the album that was previously only sold at band concerts. A song from the record, "Come Back Home," will be serviced to radio as well as to the United States Armed Forces, who will be able to download the track for free. "I wrote 'Come Back Home' with 'These Days' producer Todd Wright, "says McGee. "It started off as a story about the distance between a military couple - those many miles and oceans apart, stretches of time. As we were working on that track, the band suffered a major blow. Our longtime drummer and friend of over twelve years, Chris Williams, passed away suddenly. We were shaken to the core, and his family was devastated. So, the lyrical content of the song was crafted to tell both stories: being away from someone you love and also hearing the news of their passing and just not wanting to believe it all." 2ff7e9595c
