Who's ready for a new SP album??? We're thrilled to announce our producer for the new album, the legendary Howard Benson! He's made some amazing records: My Chemical Romance, All-American Rejects, P.O.D., Papa Roach, Less Than Jake, Hoobastank, Zebrahead, Kelly Clarkson and so many more. We're stoked to work with him and I think we will make a fantastic album together for all of you. The next 3 months will be hard work but tons of fun. Can't wait to get started! #SPalbum5
