Dave Matthews Band has enlisted producer Mark Batson (Seal, Indie.Arie) for its as-yet-untitled sixth studio album, due later this year via RCA. “Mark met the band at their [Los Angeles] show in August of last year,” reads a message on a new Web site dedicated to the project. “After a late night of musical dialogue and shared experiences, it was obvious to all the guys that they had to work with Mark.”
The site features a brief video of DMB in the studio, working on a song with a major-key groove in the vein of Sting. The unnamed track features the line “everybody wake up / if you’re living with your eyes closed.”
