ACÚSTICO - THE ACOUSTIC SESSIONS Hydria has announced the release of their third full length album, "Acústico - The Acoustic Sessions". The album, released on April 9th 2011, features reworked versions of a variety of songs from their two previous albums, "Mirror of Tears", and the most recently released, "Poison Paradise". It's the softer side of Hydria with re-arranged, slower versions of songs like "The Nymph", "Finally", and "The Place Where We Belong". Please note the album will only be available as a DIGITAL DOWNLOAD. No hard copies will be printed or sold.
As they have done with previous albums, Hydria has decided to release their music free of charge on their website (purchase and pay if you like it), however, this time they are approaching the album as an opportunity for charity. Hydria is saddened by the events that have occurred in Japan, especially after hearing first hand stories of the devastation from their Japanese label and friends and wanted to find a way to help. Hydria concluded that for fans who decide to purchase the album, all of the proceeds made from sales between now and August 31st, 2011 will be donated directly to the International Red Cross to help aid with the crisis in Japan, or any other location that is in need. The album is available only as a digital download, which saves cost for everyone, helps make it possible to release in a timely manner, and allows more of the incoming money from sales to go directly to charity. All Brazilian fans who purchase the album directly through Hydria's official website, www.hydria.com.br will receive a letter personally signed by each band member as a thank you for the donation. The band released a statement encouraging people to donate to the Red Cross saying, "Even if you are not a fan of our music, we encourage you to donate directly to the International Red Cross at http://www.icrc.org/ to help in this time of need." ** Please note, proceeds from all purchases through CDBaby.com, iTunes, and Amazon.com will be donated directly to the International Red Cross.
