Massachusetts rockers Stephen Kellogg and The Sixers, Kit "Goose" Karlson (keys, bass, vocals), Brian "Boots" Factor (drums, vocals) and Sam "Steamer" Getz (guitars, vocals)- return this fall with Gift Horse, their second studio release on Vanguard Records, available on October 11th. Produced by Mark Weinberg, Gift Horse brings the rich legacy of rock & roll into the present tense with 11 real-life narratives about love, family, and what it means to be an American today.

Stephen Kellogg chose to title the album Gift Horse for a clear-cut thematic reason. "There's the old saying, ‘Don't look a gift horse in the mouth,'" Kellogg says, "which translated as showing appreciation for what you have.' That's exactly what this record's about - appreciation that I have a job right now in 2011, with all that's going on economically in our country; appreciation for my family, because there's nothing that I value more; and appreciation of America in general."
Nowhere is this theme more apparent than on the first single and opening track, "Gravity." Kellogg writes, "Gravity you're knocking me out/ You're shakin' me up till I twist and I shout/ Oh, Gravity it's okay in the clouds/ But I love it right here with my feet on the ground."

Leading up to the release of the album, SK6ERS embark on a North American headline tour with Jon McLaughlin beginning September 27th in Birmingham, AL. Additional stops include Atlanta, Chicago, Boston, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles.

With Gift Horse Stephen Kellogg and The Sixers make a bold statement with a simple message. If you are ready to embrace the core values of life wrapped in timeless rock & roll then this is the record you've been waiting for.
