Daughtry Debuts New Song “Renegade” – Song Stream!

Chris Daughtry and his band, Daughtry premiere a new song called “Renegade” and surprise surprise…it rocks REALLY REALLY HARD!.

Times are really tough for straight up rock bands these days. Rock doesn’t get the play on Top 40 stations that it used to. I think part of the problem is that rock music has shifted to an older demo. R&B, Pop and Hip Hop are what the kids are listing to these days. So even Nickleback, who are releasing their album on November 21–the same day as Daughtry–may have a hard time getting their tunes played on CHR.
