The Cost is thirteen tunes that are constructed to last. One play will never be enough. These are the rock/pop tunes that radio used to deliver into the car radio and then the car would begin to move faster and the volume would be turned up and the people in the car would all feel all right. Really.

Produced by Mark Meisel and Bob Becker of Detroit’s Counter Clockwise Music, these guys have a knack for being able to bring all the good stuff in a tune to the top where it belongs. It took over a year to reach this point of completion but the smiles seen all around are so worth it.

The Cost is the third release by New York City’s Tim Young. Filling out the band is New York native Sand Edwards on drums. Tim and Sand play all the dives on 9th avenue in the Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood of Manhattan. On this release producer Mark Meisel added electric guitar and keyboards. Also Rick Becker on electric guitar on the final track, ‘Renegade,’ which also appeared originally on Tim’s sophomore release, Red in 2005.

Dave Davis of Sound Images in Cincinnati, Ohio mastered The Cost.

The Cost will be available at CD Baby and at timrocksweb.com which is the official website of Tim Young Band.

More information will be posted here as the release date nears.
