A note from the band: " Today we are debuting a video for a song we did not write. 'We Almost Lost Detroit' began as a homage to one of the great artists of our time, Gil Scott Heron. Ever since we formed as a band roughly two years ago, we've drawn a very high level of inspiration from this song. So much so that we felt compelled to record our own version, and put it on our first ever full-length album last year."
Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. will release a special Detroit-themed Record Store Day 12". The EP will feature "We Almost Lost Detroit," two covers of songs by other Detroit natives Madonna and Sixto Rodriguez, and three remixes by Detroit-based artists. The 12" is a limited pressing of 2k standard black vinyl units and will be available for $16.98 exclusively on Record Store Day on 4/21. They will also perform a special hometown show at Detroit's Majestic Theater on Record Store Day.
