To celebrate the release of their latest album Smoke & Mirrors on Tuesday, March 2nd, Lifehouse will be hosting a special release day concert and CD signing at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York City’s Times Square as part of their March on Stage live music series.  Tickets are only $10, and a portion of the proceeds will benefit Musicians on Call, a non-profit organization that brings live and recorded music to patients in healthcare facilities. For more information and to purchase tickets visit Ticketmaster.com.  After the release day show, Lifehouse will kick off a nationwide tour with Daughtry and Cavo starting March 18.

For a chance to hear the album before its release, the band is premiering Smoke & Mirrors in full on their official MySpace page this Saturday, February 27th.  That same day at 4 pm EST, Lifehouse will host a live chat on UStream.com to provide a track-by-track commentary on their new album, and afterward will answer questions from fans.

Smoke & Mirrors is still available for pre-order through the band’s official website, LifehouseMusic.com, in both standard and deluxe editions.    Both versions come with a download of two live tracks, while the deluxe edition includes a second disc with bonus material.
