Full Track List for Power Gig
Adding to previously-announced music industry superstars Eric Clapton, Dave Matthews Band and Kid Rock, Seven45 Studios reveals the entire track list for Power Gig: Rise of the SixString today. The incredibly diverse list of 70 tracks boasts songs from across multiple rock genres including alternative, classic, indie, metal and punk, with more than 80% of the tracks making their band game debuts with this game. Each artist has provided original master recordings of their hit songs for Power Gig: Rise of the SixString, the first band videogame for which the guitar controller is a functioning six-string electric guitar. Power Gig: Rise of the SixString will be available for the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360 videogame and entertainment system October 2010.
Eric Clapton, Dave Matthews Band and Kid Rock have each entered into exclusive agreements with Seven45 Studios to provide songs for Power Gig: Rise of the SixString. These deals mark the first time ever that songs from each of the three artists will appear as part of a music videogame. In addition to the previously-announced inclusion of Eric Claptons "Layla," Seven45 has also secured the Clapton hits "Lay Down Sally" and "Let it Rain." Dave Matthews Band is represented by "Tripping Billies," "Why I Am," and "Funny the Way It Is." Kid Rock contributes "Rock N Roll Jesus" and "Son of Detroit" to go along with chart-topper "All Summer Long." Additional songs were secured by multi-platinum artists John Mayer, No Doubt, Smashing Pumpkins, Janes Addiction, Stone Temple Pilots, Rage Against the Machine, and many others. In addition to the songs announced today, Seven45 Studios plans to continue building Power Gigs track list with continued downloadable content (DLC) after the games release.
"We wanted our song list to be diverse and appealing to gamers and families of all ages, represented with a great mix of both musical icons and up-and-coming artists," said Seven45 Studios Chairman and CEO, Bernard Chiu. "Many of these songs have been massive hits and are familiar to fans of rock music, which reflects the pick-up-and-play nature of Power Gig: Rise of the SixString."

Power Gig: Rise of the SixString will be the true evolution of the band videogame experience when it arrives this fall with a genuine six string guitar as wireless controller. The guitar features Seven45s proprietary technology that can distinguish and recognize gamers input all along the guitar, making the guitars as easy to pick up and play as any other band game button controllers. The unique dual-functionality of the SixString allows for use in-game as well as with any standard guitar amplifier. In addition to traditional beat-matching that will be familiar to fans of the band game genre, Power Gig also introduces the option to switch on chording, which presents the added challenge of playing the game using chords that require specific finger placement on the neck. As players progress through the game, becoming more comfortable with a genuine guitar and challenging themselves to play real power chords, they will find the byproduct of playing the game is coming away from it with real-life guitar skills.
