They teamed up once again with producer Julian Hinton, and engineer Simon Bloor, to record a collection of thoughtfully chosen covers and originals, and released the album as a tribute to Timmy, a celebration of everything the group has achieved together, and a thank you to their loyal and supportive fans, as well as a statement of intent for the future.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Speaking of the album, The Overtones said,<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe are really proud of the new album and all it represents. Yes there are obviously songs for reflection and even sadness but there are also songs to put a smile on your face and get you up dancing. There\u2019s a big mix of feelings and moods in this album which was certainly a challenge to express but we\u2019re so proud of what we\u2019ve achieved. This album means the world to us and we want it to mean something to the listener too.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The group will put on a show tomorrow night, December 20, at London Indigo, in the O2, rounding off a 22 date tour which has seen them perform all over the UK. The tour has also seen extra matinee performances added due to popular demand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Find The Overtones online on their <a href=\"http:\/\/theovertones.tv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official website<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/facebook.com\/theovertones\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/the_overtones\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/the_overtones\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>.
