DeGraw goes back to basics, becomes "Free"

Singer Gavin DeGraw (left, pouring alcohol for me) is set to release his third album, Free. Scheduled for release on March 31st, DeGraw told the USA Today that recording the album reminded him why he started playing music.

"It was a pleasure to make an album with understated production where the featured element was the content," the 32-year-old singer told the newspaper.

In support of the album, DeGraw will be touring in the Spring as part of the "Where it Began" tour. It kicks off in Portland, Oregon. For a complete list of tour dates check out his official website.
