The band states:
“Aeromantic II is about circling around the globe in the stratosphere, never wanting to land. A continuation of the journey we started all these years ago. The Swedish melancholy and the simultaneous love of life, creating a new alternative world for all the restless souls out there. We know that you are there. We feel you. And the Night Flight Orchestra will guide you into a better place. Where the nights are made of Chardonnay and every day is burning. Just take our hands and flounce about with us in the twillight zone, where everything is possible.”

To celebrate the good news, your very own airline crew of THE NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA suggests you a good bottle of fine white wine – best served with the new track of the band “Chardonnay Nights” that you can stream or download here.

The band about “Chardonnay Nights”:
“This song tells the story of endless summer nights and a young man’s desperate fight to push his tomorrows away. To immerse himself or herself in the emergency of the present tense. The way the secrecies of the night reveal unknown truths, and you don’t have to see things too clear, you just have to see them.”

So, follow THE NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA on another journey telling the stories of broken hearts, hopeful beginnings and glorious party nights! 

SNAKE BITE WHISKY Release New Single/Official Video ‘Choke’

Australia’s number one Heavy Outlaw Sleaze Rock band, SNAKE BITE WHISKY, has released a second single and video off their acclaimed second album, Black Candy. Choke is a gloriously over the top, pulsating sleaze rock anthem, dripping with innuendo and huge, filthy riffs. The track is a fan favourite from the album, especially amongst the female fans and subsequently was an obvious choice for the band’s second single.

Lead singer, Jay R states, “Choke is basically a fuck you to woke culture. It’s a celebration of sexually confident women who know what they want and go and get it and it’s hugely satisfying that it’s so popular with our female fans. You can bang on about #metoo and all that other PC shit but at the end of the day most people just wanna fuck without any hang ups!”

Featuring dark, strobing, trippy visuals and a high octane performance by the band, the video explores the transformation of an innocent girl into a BDSM inspired mistress and has a cinematic feel thanks to the superb camera work and editing. The video was directed by Kyle Golly of the No.One Network who has directed the bands previous video’s for Down In The Dirt, Last Man Standing and Hammered. The clip was filmed on location in Brisbane, Australia and features a performance by Australian model, Scarlett Envy.

Belgium’s most infamous death metal crew ABORTED present their second unholy single “Drag me to Hell” of their forthcoming album “ManiaCult” which will be released worldwide on September 10th, 2021 via Century Media Records.

We have such sights to show you—or rather sounds to play you—with the next single from ‘ManiaCult,’ “Drag Me to Hell.” Trust me, you’re going to want to click that button and spread it before Wayland comes for YOU!

We also welcome Filip Danielsson of Humanity’s Last Breath to the ‘ManiaCult’ via a killer guest spot. Considering Wayland’s goal is the end of humanity, we’d say Filip’s support is a great harbinger…”

Australian Teenager Rocker CASSIDY PARIS Releases New single ‘Wannabe’

The rock and edgy pop anthem, ‘Wannabe’, sees Melbourne based 18 year old CASSIDY PARIS delivering a song based on personal experience about society’s obsession with popularity.

“It focuses on the obsession today’s youth has on popularity and how they are willing to sacrifice their friendships and integrity. The youth of today are not able to be original. They all want to be Tik Tok or YouTube stars. Talentless people are trying to become famous for doing nothing at all”. Yet it was a pattern that was becoming all too familiar, Cassidy explains about the inspiration behind the song. “This song is how people fall into the pattern of becoming followers and focussed on materialistic possessions and fame”.

Wannabe is the lead song from Cassidy’s upcoming new ep/cd titled FLIRT – out September 1st and can be pre-ordered now via : https://www.ecwid.com/store/store14194061/

Cassidy is currently being managed by Direction Management in the United States which boasts a team that has worked with Pat Benatar, The Go-Go’s and The Sweet.

JOE BONAMASSA Releases New Single “Notches” From Highly Anticipated Upcoming Studio Album

Blues rock artist Joe Bonamassa is back with a brand-new single from his highly anticipated upcoming album, due out later this year. “Notches” exemplifies the unwavering journey Joe has experienced while taking the road less travelled leading him to ultimately find success. A bit older in years, but wiser in knowledge earned, his new sound has a raw and vital flavour, combined with a resolute skill that can only be gained through years of perseverance and unyielding dedication. The first single arrives today as a foot-stomping, fist-pounding dose of rock mastermind that pays homage to the artist’s resilient history, with an eye on the future as he continues to bend genres, break down walls and defy the odds of the music industry.

Joe belts out the Blues-tinged lyrics in “Notches” with a vocal range that gets even better with each release, diving deeper into his rock capabilities as he croons the resounding chorus, “I got miles under my wheels. Notches in my walkin’ cane.” He takes no prisoners with his hard-hitting anthem and holds nothing back, delivering a fresh unchartered sound that is not like anything he’s done before. The cinematically excellent official music video was directed by Paul van Kan.

Watch the music video HERE

For recording “Notches,” Bonamassa hit the studio with long-time collaborators Kevin Shirley as producer and manager/business partner Roy Weisman as executive producer. The track was mixed by Bob Clearmountain (Bruce Springsteen, The Rolling Stones, Toto, Bon Jovi) and was co-written with Charlie Starr (Blackberry Smoke). Recorded in New York City at Germano Studios/The Hit Factory the band includes Steve Mackey (bass), Lachy Doley (piano), Bunna Lawrie (didgeridoo), Bobby Summerfield (percussion), and Late Night with David Letterman’s Anton Fig (drums and percussion), along with Mahalia Barnes, Juanita Tippins, and PrinnieStevens on backing vocals. The fantastic artwork on this single was created by famous graphic artist Hugh Syme (Rush, Aerosmith, Whitesnake).

The lyrics allude to Joe’s tenured uphill battle with the music industry. Looking back, he reflects, “Twenty years ago, I recorded a record of covers that eventually was called ‘Blues Deluxe.’ It was recorded at Bobby Nathan’s studio in Manhattan. It captured an energy and purpose that always stuck with me as an artist…The music business is tough, very tough. Especially back in those days when major labels pulled all the strings and, in my case, all the punches.”
Now, maybe more than ever, Bonamassa holds the power of controlling both his artistry and his business in both hands. With 24 #1 albums, yearly sold-out tours worldwide and custom annual cruises, he’s a hard act to beat. Joe knows his worth, and albeit humble, he has no plans to back down now. “Notches” is a testament to his credentials. It’s Joe Bonamassa at his finest, ready to rock.

“Notches” is a song that begs to be heard live in an audience, banging loud from the speakers. Luckily for fans, this month Joe heads back out on tour for 42 shows, starting on the West Coast in the US at the end of this month, then traveling around the rest of the country throughout the fall season before taking the stage at sea for his sold out Keeping The Blues Alive At Sea VII cruise, sailing from Miami, FL to Ocho Rios, Jamaica on February 21-25, 2022, by way of the Norwegian Pearl.

THUNDER Announce Expanded Edition Of Top 3 Album ‘All The Right Noises’

British rock legends THUNDER have announced the release of the expanded edition of their 13th studio album, ‘All The Right Noises’ on 24th September 2021 on BMG. It follows on from the album’s original release earlier this year, which saw the band maintain their incredible chart run by achieving a No.3 Album; as well as rave reviews: ‘A classy tour de force of songwriting prowess and pacey execution’ – Classic Rock,  ‘Riotous rock and roll’ – Press Association, ‘Carries on the legacy of great rock songs’ – Fireworks. 

The brand new expanded edition will feature a DVD of the ‘Thunder TV Special’, which is extended here to include extra songs not broadcast when it was streamed back in March. Recorded in February and originally broadcast as a streamed event, the TV Special was in answer to the postponement of their arena tour from 2021 to 2022. Well known for their energetic live shows, the concept of playing a mock live show with no audience didn’t sit well with Thunder, as the fans are always such a huge part of the energy in their shows. The solution was to film a TV style performance, in the mood of the Old Grey Whistle Test or Later… with Jools Holland, with an audience joining them in real time via Zoom. And so the Thunder TV Special was born. 

Filmed at Siyan Studios in High Wycombe, the webcast of this unique performance was streamed for 48 hours on the weekend of the album’s release. The show was comprised of a set list of almost all the tunes from the new album, plus some of their biggest hits, a Zoom Q&A with fan club members, and set changes from plugged in electric to sit down acoustic. The 90 minute set was a runaway hit with Thunder fans all over the globe. Classic Rock said of it ‘Thunder are in prime form, obviously loving performing again, and throughout they accentuate the special in this TV special’.

Thunder founders Danny Bowes and Luke Morley will also embark on a UK Tour in November 2021. The shows will be based around the bandmates’ new book ‘Danny & Luke – The First 50 Years (1971-2021)’, which is released in September, and tell their story from when they first met at secondary school to achieving success with Thunder, and right up to present day. 

The Thunder arena shows will begin in May 2022, culminating on 28th May at the SSE Wembley Arena in London.
