311 - Music (30th Anniversary Expanded Edition) (1993/2023)

311’s debut studio album Music celebrates 30 years. Newly remastered and expanded on pearl white vinyl and a specialized Pearl embossed cover. Includes 4 demos on vinyl for the first time. We are celebrating the 30th Anniversary of our debut album MUSIC with two expanded vinyl versions – featuring the fourteen original album tracks plus four bonus tracks of pre-production demos from 1992 made available on vinyl for the first time ever.

311 has announced an expanded and remastered reissue of their classic debut album Music, due out September 29th, to celebrate the album’s 30th anniversary. Originally released in February 1993, Music features singles “Freak Out,” “Do You Right” — which peaked at No. 27 on Billboard’s Alternative Airplay chart — “Visit,” “My Stoney Baby,” and “Feels So Good.” The album was certified Gold by the RIAA in 1999 and peaked at No. 37 on the Billboard Heatseekers Albums chart.

Released through Volcano Entertainment and Sony Music’s Legacy Recordings, there will be two expanded vinyl versions of Music, featuring the album’s original 14 tracks plus four bonus tracks of pre-production demos from 1992 made available on vinyl for the first time ever.

“Hard to believe it’s been 30 years since our first studio record,” says drummer Chad Sexton. “We have decided to release a 30th anniversary edition vinyl which includes extra tracks never released on vinyl before. These are pre-production album tracks that date back to 1992. A Pearl is the gemstone to celebrate 30-year anniversaries and in line with this concept we are introducing a Pearlized version of the album cover. We hope you enjoy this old classic as much as we did making this record.”

311 recently announced their upcoming fall tour, featuring special guests AWOLNATION and Blame My Youth. The tour kicks off in Clive, IA on September 19th and will be making stops in St. Louis, Kansas City, Grand Junction, Salt Lake City, and more before wrapping up in Highland, CA on October 8th.

311 mixes rock, rap, reggae & funk into their own unique, hybrid sound – and 33 years later, the band is still regarded as one of the most entertaining & dynamic live bands in the U.S.

As veterans of over 2,000 shows across 27 countries, 311 is one of the longest running original lineups in rock, alongside iconic acts like U2 and Radiohead.

The band’s celebrated live shows and touring schedule have earned them a vast and dedicated following nationwide. Their annual, headlining, amphitheater show is a staple of the U.S. Summer touring season. Past support acts include: The Offspring, Snoop Dogg, Sublime with Rome, Cypress Hill, Slightly Stoopid, Dirty Heads, The Roots, Matisyahu, and Ziggy Marley.

Ten of the band’s albums have reached the Top 10 on Billboard’s Top 200 Sales Chart – and nine of their singles have reached the Top 10 on Billboard’s Alternative Radio Chart – including three #1 singles: “Down,” “Love Song,” and “Don’t Tread On Me” – along with ”Amber,” “All Mixed Up,” “Come Original,” “Creatures For Awhile,” “Hey You,” and “Sunset in July.”
