New York, NY – Project Grand Slam, the acclaimed jazz-rock fusion band led by bassist/composer Robert Miller, is excited to announce the release of their 4th studio album, The Queen's Carnival, available now in physical and digital form via CEN/RED Distribution, a division of Sony Music. This exciting and fresh take on jazz-rock fusion (Miller calls the album a post-fusion record) features eleven tracks, including nine original songs by Robert and both vocal and instrumental versions of the Kinks' classic, "You Really Got Me." This continues Project Grand Slam's tradition of reinventing popular classic rock songs as jazz-rock fusion and featuring vocal and instrumental versions of the cover track. "I think that people can relate to covers of popular songs, and it's very cool to try and reimagine them in a way that is both true to the original but which takes the song to a whole other level", says Robert.

You can view the music video for "You Really Got Me" here.

This release follows the successful 2015 release of their third album, "Made in New York", which featured the hit songs "New York City Groove" and "Fire" (Robert's highly acclaimed reimagined cover of Jimi Hendrix's classic).Current single "You Really Got Me", is a fresh, reimagined take on The Kinks' classic, and features vocals by noted singer Lucy Woodward. Dave Davies, guitarist and singer for The Kinks had this to say about the single – "Very unique version and I am liking it!"

The new album, which also features recent single "The Rescue", draws from a variety of influences across genres as diverse as Celtic folk and afro-Cuban rhythms while highlighting Miller's unique approach to blending jazz and rock into a totally new sound.
