Sarah McLachlan To Release New Album In June

Sure, not everyone loves the dreamy, adult-pop music stylings of singer/songwriter Sarah McLachlan, but for those who do today just got a whole lot better. The Grammy-winner is scheduled to release her first studio album of new material in 7 years, The Laws of Illusion, on June 15.

The album is currently being recorded in Montreal and Vancouver, with plans for release just prior to the kick off of Lilith Fair 2010, the return of the all women touring festival, founded by McLachlan.

A special pre-order campaign for The Laws of Illusion is available now exclusively at sarahmclachlan.com.

Fans that pre-order her new album will be offered the added benefit of exclusive access to purchase Lilith Fair tickets before they are made available anywhere else, and additionally will receive an instant download of Sarah’s new song, “One Dream.”

A resident of Vancouver, Sarah recently performed at the opening ceremony for the Winter Olympics and wrote and recorded “One Dream,” which was used as part of NBC’s marketing campaign for the Vancouver Winter Olympics.

Between 1997-1999, Lilith Fair enjoyed over 2 million fans in attendance and over $10 million dollars raised for national and local women’s charities.  Lilith Fair 2010 features performances by Mary J. Blige, Sheryl Crow, Kelly Clarkson, Erykah Badu, Sugarland, Heart, Norah Jones, Ke$ha, Corinne Bailey Rae, Loretta Lynn, Emmylou Harris and Tegan and Sara – to name an excellent few.
