Let's Cheers to This is the second studio album by US post-hardcore band Sleeping with Sirens from Grand Rapids ( Michigan ). It was produced by Kris Crummett and was released worldwide on May 10, 2011 via Rise Records . It is the first album with Jack Fowler and Jesse Lawson as guitarists .

history

On December 7, 2010, the musicians announced that they would be producing a new album, which should be released in mid-2011. The band Kris Crummett, who worked for Dance Gavin Dance , among others , was able to win over as producers . The group moved into the studio in February 2011.

The album's working title was originally Who Are You Now? . However, the album was later released under Let's Cheers to This . The original album title had a religious context, but the concept of the songs did not, so the name was changed. In addition, the band The Providence had an album of the same name, so the musicians wanted to be on the safe side when choosing a name.
