Wanikiya Record/Promotion is proud to announce a new important international collaboration with legendary Australian vocalist DAVE EVANS and Savant Guarde Records for the upcoming release of Dave Evans’ new studio album, “Justice”.
This collaboration brings together one of the historic figures of Australian Rock with a new promotional partnership dedicated to the international promotion of his upcoming release.
Dave Evans is a fundamental figure in the history of Australian and international Rock. Co-founder and original vocalist of AC/DC, Evans has been part of Rock history for decades, from his early years with AC/DC and his subsequent work with legendary Australian band Rabbit, to his extensive solo career.
In 2026, Dave Evans returns with “Justice”, a brand-new studio album featuring ten Rock & Roll anthems packed with energy, riffs, melodies and Evans’ unmistakable attitude.
“Justice” also represents the final chapter of a trilogy, following Sinner and Judgement Day, bringing a musical journey spanning more than two decades to its conclusion.
“Justice” also marks Dave Evans’ second release with Savant Guarde Records, following “Defenders of Rock”, released in 2025 with Rabbit to celebrate 50 years of the legendary Australian band’s music.
The new album therefore continues the relationship between Dave Evans and Savant Guarde Records, further developing a collaboration that now moves into a new chapter of Evans’ solo career.
Once again, Dave Evans is joined by guitarist Mark Tinson, continuing an artistic partnership that has already produced important chapters of Evans’ solo career.
The album also features several musicians connected to Australian Rock history, including Scott Johnston, Dai Pritchard and Justin Ngariki, all formerly of Rose Tattoo, as well as Laurie Marlowe, bassist of Australian Heavy Metal icons HEAVEN, alongside several other special guests.
The first single from the album, “Mean Machine”, has already offered listeners the first taste of what “Justice” has to offer.
The album will be released by Savant Guarde Records, which will remain the official label for the project.
At the same time, Dave Evans officially joins the Wanikiya Record/Promotion roster, with Wanikiya handling the international press office and promotional campaign for “Justice”.
The collaboration between Dave Evans, Savant Guarde Records and Wanikiya Record/Promotion will bring “Justice” to radio stations, magazines, webzines and specialized Rock and Metal media worldwide.
With “Justice”, Dave Evans closes a trilogy, continues his collaboration with Savant Guarde Records and opens a new chapter in his remarkable musical journey.
