New Found Glory, Bowling For Soup, Plain White T’s and more for official Disney pop punk covers album

New Found Glory, Bowling For Soup and Plain White T’s are among the artists set to contribute songs to an all pop-punk Disney covers album.

‘A Whole New Sound’ will be released on September 6 and will be made up of classic songs from the Disney songbook reimagined by pop-punk groups.

Other artists involved in the project include Simple Plan, Meet Me @ The Altar, Magnolia Park and Yellowcard.

The latest single to be shared from the compilation is New Found Glory’s version of ‘Part Of Your World’, the beloved track from 1989’s The Little Mermaid.

The band’s guitarist Chad Gilbert has said: “In approaching this song, I sat with the lyrics and melodies for a while. I realized that to make people feel what Ariel’s feeling, we needed to match the energy of the music with the rebellious thoughts of the song, along with her hope for adventure. When she sings about wanting to dance, the music is upbeat and fun, but when she expresses her longing for freedom, the rhythm drops so you really feel the pull of the heart.”

“Our band’s biggest goal has always been to show and encourage young adults, the young at heart, and any person that has a dream but faces self-doubt that there is another world out there that will accept them for exactly who they are. To not be afraid to take the next step.”

The full tracklist for ‘A Whole New Sound’ is: 

  1. New Found Glory – ‘Part Of Your World’ 
  2. Mayday Parade – ‘Remember Me’ 
  3. Simple Plan – ‘Can You Feel The Love Tonight’ 
  4. Magnolia Park – ‘I2I’ 
  5. Yellowcard – ‘A Whole New World’ 
  6. We The Kings – ‘Go The Distance’ 
  7. Plain White T’s – ‘Surface Pressure’ 
  8. Meet Me & The Altar – ‘You’ve Got A Friend In Me’ 
  9. Boys Like Girls – ‘You’ll Be In My Heart’ 
  10. Tokio Hotel – ‘Colors Of The Wind’ 
  11. LØLØ – ‘Let It Go’ 
  12. Bowling For Soup – ‘Friend Like Me’
