Rock & Roll Forever is produced and co-written by Tommy Henriksen (Daughtry, Lady GaGa). It was recorded in Los Angeles and Nashville in Sept/Oct 2009 at Henriksens’ Anarchy Studios. This is the third release by KOTTAK (formerly KrunK), who previously released ‘Greatist Hits’ in 2000 and ‘Therupy’ 2007.
