“It’s Not Over” For Daughtry

On September 9th, 19 Records will re-release Daughtry’s debut CD in a new deluxe version. The upcoming release will feature a bonus DVD and four bonus audio tracks, including an acoustic version of the band’s huge hit “Home,” “What About Now” as performed on the Idol Gives Back TV special, and a cover of the Foreigner favorite “Feels Like the First Time.”

Daughtry, as a supporter of One, which raises awareness of global hunger and poverty, will take part in events surrounding both the Democratic and Republican conventions this year. “The band’s participation will spotlight One and its mission while focusing attention on the opportunities the next president and Congress will have to make a major difference in the fight against global poverty, hunger and disease,” says 19 Records in a press release.

Many CDs like Daughtry’s are being repackaged with extras and re-released. How do you feel about this trend? Comment and let us know.
