August 5, 2009

The first show of CREED's U.S. tour — on Thursday, August 6 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania — will be filmed for VH1's new series, "Live & Loud Fridays". Footage from the concert will air on VH1 on Friday, August 7 at 9:00 p.m. EST.

"Live & Loud Fridays" is a six-week concert series that airs on VH1 every Friday at 9:00 p.m. (series premiered on July 17). Each thirty-minute episode includes one band performing three of their biggest hits from the featured concert VH1 covers. VH1's backstage host gives the viewer a fly-on-the-wall experience of each concert with exclusive backstage access, interviews and upcoming tour information.

"Live & Loud Fridays" provides an exclusive front-row seat to this summer's hottest concert tours.

Video footage of CREED performing live on Fox News' "Fox & Friends" in front of a live audience in New York City on June 26, 2009 can be viewed below.

CREED recently entered the studio to begin recording its first new album in eight years.

"We're excited to share (the new music) with our fans, and we really have a lot we want to prove" after a five-year hiatus, singer Scott Stapp told Billboard.com. He said CREED has "13, 14 songs that we would consider as album keepers" for the group's first set of new material since 2001's "Weathered". We've written more than that, but we've got this many that are fighting for a spot on the record. So we're in a good place." The group is recording in Nashville with producer Howard Benson.

With the reunited band going out on a summer tour for the first time since disbanding in 2004, Stapp told The Pulse of Radio that he felt it was important for them to make new music together too. "From the beginning, I was 'new record, new record,' but as we all had been apart for a while, there was, you know, 'Well, how is everybody now?'" he said. "The thing that really pushed us through that is to be able to talk about our wives and our children and have that common bond of family. I think it allowed the trust level to move a little faster, and soon after that is when everyone was fully committed to making a record."

The album's tentative title is "Full Circle".
