Rock Legend JOHN CORABI Releases Debut Solo Album 'New Day' — Out Now via Frontiers Music Srl

Today, rock icon JOHN CORABI is proud to release his long-awaited solo debut, 'New Day,' out now via Frontiers Music Srl. To celebrate the release, JOHN also shares his new single "1969," alongside an official music video.

On the new track "1969," JOHN comments:

"'1969' is a great song inspired by the current situations in America, which made me think of another turbulent time in the 60’s-70’s…The riff throughout is compliments of Stevie D (from Buckcherry) and inspired by one of my favorite bands Creedence Clearwater Revival." 

Watch the Official Music Video for "1969" Below:

‘New Day’ marks JOHN CORABI’s first full-length solo album of original material. Recorded in Nashville during the summer of 2025 and produced by multi-platinum songwriter and producer Marti Frederiksen (Aerosmith, Ozzy Osbourne, Buckcherry), the album fuses classic ’70s rock, soul, and blues influences into a sound that feels both timeless and deeply personal.

The record features the previously released singles “Così Bella (So Beautiful)” (2021) and “Your Own Worst Enemy” (2022), now presented as part of a rich collection of tracks that spotlight his commanding vocals, heartfelt lyrics, and masterful songwriting. Throughout the album, CORABI is joined by Marti Frederiksen, who adds backing vocals, guitars, piano, and percussion; Evan Frederiksen on drums, bass, B3 organ, electric guitar, mandolin, and programming; Richard Fortus (Guns N’ Roses) on lead guitar; Paul Taylor (Winger, Steve Perry) contributing piano, organ, and clavinet, as well as Charlie Starr (Blackberry Smoke) offering guitar solos. Together, they create an organic, instrument-driven sound built on real performances, melodic interplay, and soulful energy.

More than just a solo debut, ‘New Day’ serves as CORABI’s personal testament to rock’s enduring spirit—an exploration of melody, soul, and authenticity, played with passion and conviction at every turn.

JOHN shares:

"I’m very excited for everybody to hear this new collection of songs! I wanted to put together an album of eclectic, organic songs that are reminiscent of the music I grew up listening to, and I truly believe the mission was accomplished! This is a 60’s-70’s sounding classic rock and roll record…Turn it up, and enjoy!!!"

UK Rocker DAN BYRNE Unveils New Single "Home"

Hotly-tipped UK rocker DAN BYRNE has unveiled his new single "Home," another glimpse of his highly-anticipated debut record 'This Is Where the Show Beginsout May 22nd via Frontiers Srl

Dan comments:

"'Home' closes the album on a grand and emotional scale. Musically, it’s vast - cinematic guitars, soaring vocals, and a sense of release that makes it feel like the light breaking through at the end of a storm. Lyrically, 'Home' is about connection that transcends distance, the kind of love that grounds you no matter how far you roam. It was born out of life on the road: hotel rooms, long drives, and late nights spent under unfamiliar skies, but knowing that somewhere out there, the person you love is looking up at the same stars.

"No matter how far away I am, my partner is my home. We might be on opposite sides of the world, but we’re still under the same sky, the same stars, the same universe. Home is about sitting with the weight of loneliness and finding comfort in the thought that someone is part of you, even when they’re not near. It’s a song about peace, belonging, and gratitude.

"As the final song on the record, 'Home' acts as the emotional resolution to everything that’s come before: the end of the storm, if you will. After exploring conflict, self-sabotage, anger, and pain across the album, this song represents acceptance, stillness, and clarity. It’s a love letter, a homecoming, and a moment of still light in the aftermath of noise.

"'Home' is where the journey finally lands - not in a place, but in a person."

The single follows Dan's triumphant headline tour, with nearly every date sold out. He follows this with an acoustic record store tour. See below for the complete list of dates.

Watch the Official Video for "Home" Below

‘This Is Where The Show Begins,’ DAN’s debut album, is full of joy and confidence. There is swagger alongside sensitivity, a widening musical horizon that feels both fresh and bold. At the center of it all is that voice, as powerful as it is vulnerable, as emotive as it is commanding.

The lead single, “Saviour,” is a perfect opener. It bursts to life with attention-grabbing hard-rock stabs and pile-driving riffs, its verses simmering with quiet drama before exploding into a chorus that promises we are in for one hell of a ride. It struts, it shimmies, and it absolutely rocks. “Light ’em up,” indeed. There is no letup as we are thrown headlong into “She’s the Devil,” DAN delivering a colossal vocal punctuated by gonzo guitar gymnastics, the euphoria here is undeniable.

Elsewhere, we are taken to church with “Praise Hell,” and “Sober” is steeped in regret. We may even get a glimpse of where DAN is headed next with album closer “Home,” a sprawling, shapeshifting piece of alt-rock that never loses its soul. It feels like Glenn Hughes and 30 Seconds to Mars combining their superpowers and letting the sparks fly.

‘This Is Where The Show Begins’ feels like the culmination of an incredible journey so far and the launching point for what comes next. It is a testament to backing yourself, trusting your instincts, and letting ambition, honesty and musical diversity lead the way. This is where it may truly begin for DAN. The exciting question now is where he will take us next.

Pre-Order 'This Is Where The Show Begins' HERE

Dan will also be performing at Steelhouse Festival on July 25th.

DAN BYRNE swept in off the Mersey, announcing himself as a solo artist in 2023 with his debut EP, ‘Beginnings.’ His powerhouse, soul-inflected vocal and deftly-executed, yet hugely accessible songcraft has quickly marked him out as an artist on the rise. Blending contemporary edge with classic influence, BYRNE’s music is powerful, honest, and deeply emotive - widescreen in scope yet intimate at its core. It rocks, without question, but what truly sets him apart is the courage to weave sensitivity and vulnerability through the intensity. This isn’t just rock music - it has the heart and authenticity to connect with an audience beyond any one genre.

 

In just two years DAN has toured the UK three times, delivered standout performances at multiple festivals and found overwhelming support from Planet Rock - the UK’s leading rock station - where his first four singles amassed an impressive 25 weeks on the playlist. With that foundation firmly in place, BYRNE now turns his focus to the release of his long-awaited debut solo album, marking the next powerful step in his evolution as an artist.

Canadian Hard Rock Trio VON GROOVE Shares New Single "Undefeated" + Official Visualizer

Hard rockers VON GROOVE are proud to share their new single, "Undefeated," taken from their upcoming new album 'Born To Rock,' set for release on May 15, 2026 via Frontiers Music Srl. "Undefeated" marks the third track released from the new album and arrives alongside an official visualizer.

Drummer/vocalist Michael Shotton comments on the new track:

"'Undefeated' is the story of relentless persistence. Always rising to the challenge and never giving up. Defeat is not an option. Every day we step into that ring and face the enemy head-on and come out swinging. 'Undefeated' rocks as only VON GROOVE can. WARNING: don’t listen to this while driving on the highway!"

Watch the Official Visualizer for "Undefeated" Below.

VON GROOVE triumphantly returns with a jaw-dropping new album that reunites the classic original lineup: Mladen on guitars, Michael Shotton on drums and vocals, and Matthew Gerrard on bass. This isn’t just a comeback, it’s a resurrection!

 

Marking their first studio release since 2001, the album feels like it was born in the same fire as their legendary 1992 debut. The opening title-track, "Born To Rock," explodes with the same urgency and swagger as their iconic “Once Is Not Enough” — even quoting it with a subtle nod that will send chills down the spine of longtime fans.

 

True to their roots, VON GROOVE delivers a masterclass in melodic hard rock, with blazing guitars, soaring vocals, and airtight arrangements. The production is punchy and alive, but the soul of the record is pure 90s AOR glory.

 

Even more exciting? VON GROOVE will be returning to the stage in 2026, bringing their renewed fire and timeless sound back to live audiences for the first time in years.

Pre-Order 'Born To Rock' HERE

Founded in 1990, VON GROOVE quickly made their mark on the Melodic Hard Rock scene. Their 1992 self-titled debut, produced by Richie Zito and featuring Deen Castronovo (later of Journey) on session drums, remains a cornerstone of the genre. Over the years, they’ve delivered fan-favorite albums like 'Mission Man' ('Chameleon' in Europe), 'Test of Faith,' and'The Seventh Day.' Despite going on hiatus in 2001, the members stayed active, collaborating with rock legends and contributing to major projects across genres.

After 20+ years, VON GROOVE is making their epic comeback!

Hard Rock Supergroup ICONIC Returns with Sophomore Album 'II' Set for Release on July 31, 2026 via Frontiers Music Srl

Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announce the return of the hard rock supergroup Iconic, featuring Michael Sweet (guitars), Joel Hoekstra (guitars), Marco Mendoza (bass), Tommy Aldridge (drums), and Nathan James (vocals), for their sophomore album 'II,' scheduled for July 31, 2026.

To celebrate the announcement, the band shares the new single and accompanying lyric video, “Cry No More," available now.

Michael Sweet commented:

“It’s been a long time coming, and the time is finally here! It’s an absolute honor to be a part of such an incredible band, and 'Cry No More' is the perfect representation of who Iconic is. Music that takes you back to the best of times and reminds you that rock is still alive and well!”

“It’s a pleasure to work with these fantastic musicians in Iconic. ‘Cry No More’ should give classic rock fans something raw and real in terms of both playing and production. Crank it up!”, Joel Hoekstra added.

Nathan James also stated,

“I'm so pleased to have made another album with these incredible musicians. I hope everyone enjoys this first single, 'Cry No More', and the whole album."

“Well, the time is here, folks, finally ICONIC – 'II' is coming to you, with the first single 'Cry No More' coming soon!" Marco Mendoza exclaimed. “Like always, it’s a blast and quite an honor to be part of a project like this, with all these players! Take a listen and enjoy! Viva la ROCK!!!”

Watch the New Lyric Video for "Cry No More"

ICONIC returns with 'II,' a second album that doesn’t just continue the band’s journey - it defines it. Where their debut introduced the chemistry between five world-class musicians, 'II' sharpens that vision into a clearer, heavier, and more confident sonic identity, delivering a sound that is more powerful, more direct, and unmistakably rock.

At the heart of the album lies the electrifying guitar partnership of Joel Hoekstra and Michael Sweet, delivering a masterclass in soaring melodies, blazing solos, and muscular riffs that perfectly balance technical brilliance with pure hard-rock attitude. Beneath them, the rhythm section of Tommy Aldridge and Marco Mendoza drives the record with thunderous authority, creating a groove that is both massive and relentless.

The album kicks off with “Cry No More," a high-octane opener that immediately sets the tone - an energetic slice of hard rock packed with driving riffs, explosive drums, and a chorus built to stick.

On the other side of the emotional spectrum, “Tears Keep On Falling” showcases the band’s dynamic range, unfolding as an electrifying power ballad where melody, atmosphere, and intensity come together in dramatic fashion.

Towering above it all is Nathan James, whose performance on 'II' is nothing short of extraordinary - powerful, soulful, and commanding, elevating every track with unmistakable presence.

With bigger riffs, deeper grooves, and a stronger sense of identity, 'II' captures ICONIC at full force: a band no longer introducing itself but fully owning its sound.

SPREAD EAGLE Unleashes New Single "Flat Earth Vultures" + Official Video

Today, hard rock veterans SPREAD EAGLE unleash their new single “Flat Earth Vultures,”taken from their upcoming album, ‘The Brutal Divine,’ out on June 12, 2026 via Frontiers Music Srl. The new track arrives alongside an official video, available below.

SPREAD EAGLE are currently on the road on “The Brutal Divine Tour 2026,” with dates across the US, UK, and Europe throughout the summer. For the full list of dates, please see below and HERE.

On “Flat Earth Vultures,” the band comments:

“If there ever was a guitar riff that defines what street metal is, we’d say it’s 'Flat Earth Vultures.' Combined with an interesting lyrical observation on how the rich are making clowns of the rest of us, the track is an instant SPREAD EAGLE classic.”

Watch the Official Video for "Flat Earth Vultures" Below:

‘The Brutal Divine' is SPREAD EAGLE’s long-awaited fourth studio album and a fierce new chapter in the band’s uncompromising legacy. Known for their raw energy, streetwise attitude, and explosive live performances, they once again prove why they remain a vital force in modern hard rock.

The band described the new record as “an emotionally and musically heavy body of songs showcasing a unique command of power, dynamics, and melody. We have harnessed the energy of years of non-stop touring and turned it into a metal/punk thrill ride of an album."

“Lyrically, 'The Brutal Divine' challenges us to question our views and ask if we're truly as free-thinking as we may believe. Once that question is posed, the album progresses towards uplifting messages of hope and community”, they continued.

Fronted by the unmistakable voice of Ray West, the band delivers a powerful collection of songs that balance grit and melody, aggression and soul. Guitarist Gianmaria “Jommy” Puledda injects the record with razor-sharp riffs and soaring harmonies, while Rob De Luca(bass, vocals) and Rik De Luca (drums) form a thunderous rhythmic backbone that drives every track with authority and groove.

Produced by Rob De Luca, 'The Brutal Divine' captures the band at their most focused and dynamic - blending their classic hard rock roots with a darker, heavier edge. The album channels the intensity and authenticity that first put SPREAD EAGLE on the map, while showcasing a band that continues to evolve without losing its identity.

With a full slate of live dates planned in support of the release, SPREAD EAGLE is ready to bring 'The Brutal Divine' to stages around the world - where their music truly comes alive. This is hard rock delivered with conviction, attitude, and fire.

Guitar Powerhouse JARED JAMES NICHOLS Unveils New Single "Runnin' Hot" + Official Music Video

Today, JARED JAMES NICHOLS is proud to unveil his new single, "Runnin' Hot," taken from his upcoming fourth studio album, 'Louder Than Fate,' due out on June 5, 2026, via Frontiers Music Srl. "Runnin' Hot" was produced, mixed, and engineered by Jay Ruston. The accompanying music video, found below, was filmed, directed, and edited by Speed Rabbit Films.

JARED comments on the new track:

“'Runnin’ Hot' was written with a dear friend of mine and rock-and-roll maniac, Tuk Smith. We wanted to tap into everything we love about this music—something real, raw, and fun. Shooting the music video took that mantra even further. Elvis James brought the same energy behind the camera, and the result is a laugh-out-loud, wildly entertaining watch.”

A set of record-release shows kicks off in Teaneck, NJ, on May 29th, and a list of his upcoming live dates can be found below.

Watch the Official Video for "Runnin' Hot"

Produced and mixed by Jay Ruston (AnthraxStone SourAmon Amarth, Skindred,

and Steel Panther) with additional production by Roger Alan Nichols (Larkin Poe, Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown and Hayley Williams of Paramore), 'Louder Than Fate' balances muscle and melody, combining thunderous riffs, searing solos, and emotionally charged vocals with a modern, punchy production. The songs move effortlessly between hard-hitting rock anthems and more reflective, dynamic moments, showcasing NICHOLS’ ability to fuse classic influences with a contemporary edge. Tracks like “Bending or Breaking” and “Killing Time” expand the sonic palette with subtle keyboards and cinematic string arrangements, adding depth without ever sacrificing power.

Since his breakout debut, JARED JAMES NICHOLS has built a reputation as one of the most electrifying guitarists and performers of his generation. Known for his unmistakable tone, fearless playing style, and commanding stage presence, he has toured extensively across the US and Europe, sharing stages with some of the biggest names in rock and earning praise from fans and critics alike.

'Louder Than Fate' is not just an album — it’s a declaration. A record that speaks to resilience, conviction, and the unstoppable force of an artist who plays every note as if it truly matters. Loud, honest, and deeply human, this is JARED JAMES NICHOLS at his absolute best.

NICHOLS comments on 'Louder Than Fate':

“I’m beyond excited for this record. I’ve been counting down the days until its release like it’s a personal holiday. If the singles are any hint for you, there are plenty of riffs ripping through the speakers like a buzz saw. But going deeper into the record, there are tons of different emotions and sounds that I have yet to explore as a singer/songwriter. I am personally thrilled to share different shades of myself on this record, giving so much more depth and insight to the listener. Get ready for ‘Louder than Fate’."

Brazilian Rockers ELECTRIC MOB Share New Live Version of "4 letters" + Official Video

Brazilian rock trio ELECTRIC MOB are proud to share the new live version of "4 letters," taken from the upcoming digital deluxe edition of their sophomore album '2 Make U Cry & Dance,' set for release on July 10th via Frontiers Music Srl. The digital deluxe edition will feature the full studio release alongside six live tracks performed at Capital Moto Week 2024.

On the live version of "4 letters," the band shares:

"It’s a deep honest declaration of the reality of love. For someone, something or simply yourself. We often downplay or trivialize feelings like it’s nothing, and '4 letters' is a wake up call to love and to mean it."



Watch the Live Performance Video for "4 letters" Below:

Without hiding their classic rock influences and driven by a modern, restless vision, ELECTRIC MOB are unafraid to break away from clichés and push rock fans beyond their comfort zone.

Hailing from Curitiba, Brazil, the band burst onto the scene like a mad dog on the loose with their debut album 'DISCHARGE' (2020). Raw, unapologetic, and emotionally charged, the record broke through borders, surprising international audiences and carving out space on rock radio stations throughout the United States and Europe.

In January 2023, the band released their second album, '2 MAKE U CRY & DANCE,' earning positive reviews across multiple countries. This was followed by a Brazilian headlining tour through 12 cities in six different states. The momentum continued as ELECTRIC MOB joined forces with Project 46 for a nationwide run that expanded into Brazil’s Northeast.

Their live streak carried into 2024 and 2025 with a strong presence at major festivals, including Summer Breeze Brasil, now known as Bangers Open Air, where Billboard Brasil cited the band as “one of the most praised performances of the event.” Additional highlights include a main stage appearance at Capital Moto Week, which resulted in the live recording 'Live @ Capital Moto Week,' and performances at Porão do Rock (DF), Mundial Rock (SC), SBO Rock Fest (SP), and HackTown (MG).

On the upcoming deluxe release, vocalist Renan Zonta comments:

"We’re thrilled to release this super special edition of something we’re very proud of. The DLX version of our second album '2 Make U Cry & Dance' comes with kickass live and raw cuts, and it’s here to re-insure the power inside this beautiful cake. Give it an extra spin while we’re cooking a new one ⚡️😈"

Guitarist Ben Hur adds:

"We’ve always considered ourselves a band forged on stage. That’s where everything truly comes to life. In this deluxe release of our second album, we’re capturing a part of that energy and sharing it with fans who haven’t yet had the chance to experience it with us in person."

Frontiers Music Srl Announces Signing of NELSON

Today, Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announce the signing of legendary melodic rock duo NELSON to the label’s roster. The band, led by master songwriting twin brothers Matthew and Gunnar Nelson, will also appear at the upcoming Frontiers Rock Festival on Sunday, May 3, 2026, further strengthening their renewed partnership with the label.

The band comments:

“We’re honored to re-join the Frontiers family. NELSON’s now classic 'Lightning Strikes Twice' was the first release for Frontiers in America when the label opened up their US office years ago- and as such, we’ve always felt like a valued part of the team. NELSON is and has always been truly unique - and our family at Frontiers has always valued that, as well as our exhaustive process to write, record, and produce world-class albums that endure the test of time.”

“We’re honored to reconnect with a roster that celebrates melodic rock music with such passion. We can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on and to deepen our connection with our fans around the world. Be warned: the new NELSON record is amazing,” they add.

Mario de Riso, A&R and Business Affairs VP at Frontiers, shares:

“It is an absolute thrill to have NELSON back to the Frontiers roster. Matthew and Gunnarhave a very special place in the history of melodic rock, and their talent, identity, and consistency as artists continue to shine. Their music represents the kind of quality, emotion, and craftsmanship we deeply believe in. We look forward to sharing this new music with their loyal fans and with a new generation of listeners.”

Matthew and Gunnar Nelson have built a career that truly stands the test of time. Rising to global prominence in the early 1990s with NELSON’s multi-platinum debut 'After The Rain,' the twins topped the Billboard Hot 100 with “(Can’t Live Without Your) Love And Affection,” earning a place in the Guinness Book of World Records. With seven Top 40 singles, five #1 MTV videos, and over 6.5 million albums sold worldwide, NELSON became a defining force of their time.

Deeply rooted in one of America’s most storied entertainment families, Matthew and Gunnarbring a rare perspective to longevity in music. Their grandparents, Ozzie and Harriet, made television history with “The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet,” while Ozzie also pioneered early music-video concepts long before MTV. Their father, Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Ricky Nelson, sold over 200 million records and helped found the country rock genre. Carrying this legacy forward, the twins have consistently evolved and continue to connect with audiences across generations through authenticity, craftsmanship, and heart.

Beyond music, Matthew and Gunnar Nelson have also become best-selling authors with their book “What Happened To Your Hair?”, adding another dimension to their creative journey.

Today, Matthew and Gunnar Nelson continue to explore fresh creative territory, carrying forward their unmistakable melodic sensibility and soaring sibling harmonies. With a career defined by reinvention and longevity, NELSON remains a vital presence on the rock scene.

To celebrate the announcement, MICHAEL SWEET also shares his new single "Worship You," alongside an official lyric video.

A deeply personal and sonically expansive project, 'The Master Plan' marks a bold departure from SWEET’s signature hard rock sound, showcasing an eclectic mix of influences that reflect his musical roots and lifelong inspirations.

 

Unlike anything in his extensive catalogue, 'The Master Plan' offers listeners a fresh perspective on SWEET’s artistry. “It’s totally different… it’s not a rock record.

Beyond its musical diversity, the album carries a strong message of faith, perseverance, and encouragement—hallmarks of SWEET’s decades-long career.

 

“I hope people can be lifted up, encouraged, inspired… if I can help someone through a song, I’ve done my job,” SWEET shares. “It was therapeutic for me, and I want it to be for other people as well.”

 

With ‘The Master Plan,’ SWEET continues to evolve as an artist while staying grounded in the message and mission that have defined his career—from global success with Stryper to a prolific solo journey.

NUNSLAUGHTER Unleashes New Single "Jesus Fu*king Dies" + Official Music Video

Cleveland’s unholy denizens of the underground, NUNSLAUGHTER, proudly unleash their new single, "Jesus Fu*king Dies," off of their upcoming BLKIIBLK debut album, 'Satanic Chaos Legions,' set for release on June 26, 2026. "Jesus Fu*king Dies" arrives alongside an official music video.

On the new track, vocalist Don of the Dead comments:

"This song germinated with one line from our guitarist, Tormentor, when he asked 'Did Mary cum when Jesus was conceived?' I find the whole Gospel absurd but the best part of the story is where 'Jesus Fu*king Dies.'"

Watch the Music Video for "Jesus Fu*king Dies" Below:

A constant in extreme metal and an unyielding inspiration for generations of black metal and thrash provocateurs, NUNSLAUGHTER’s latest hymnal of brutality kicks off with a call to irreligious arms and doesn’t let go until the bloody end. Tracks like the grinding “Peukharist”or the uncompromising “Unsacrament” batter the senses like the bastard offspring of Slayerand 'Earth A.D.'-era Misfits, inverting crucifixes while worshipping at the hoof of the ibex.

Having already set fire to the international metal scene with festival appearances across the globe and a European tour on the way, make no mistake: NUNSLAUGHTER’s campaign of world-defilement is just beginning.

On the upcoming album, Don of the Dead shares:

"With BLKIIBLK on our side NUNSLAUGHTER can ram the black horn of Satan down the throats of every metalhead on the planet, spitting fresh venom and blistering hatred directly into the rotting face of Christianity with 'Satanic Chaos Legions.'"

Being part of such an important milestone for a label that has contributed so much to the rock and melodic music scene is incredibly meaningful to me. Even more special is the opportunity to perform a song by the legendary Stryper, a band that has inspired generations of musicians and fans around the world.

 

“The song itself is absolutely amazing, the chorus moved me from the very first listen, and I instantly fell in love with its energy and melody. Singing a track by the great Michael Sweetwas also incredibly fun and inspiring, and I truly enjoyed every moment of it. I am deeply grateful to be part of this celebration!” she concluded.

In 2022 and 2023, MALVADA solidified its presence on the national rock panorama, performing more than a hundred shows in several cities in Brazil. The band had the privilege of participating in huge festivals, such as Rock in Rio, Best of Blues and Rock, Angra Fest,and Chama Rock, sharing the stage with renowned national and international rock names, like Pitty, Ira!, Angra, Viper, Edu Falaschi, Matanza, Golpe de Estado, Extreme, and Tom Morello.

In November 2023, MALVADA, composed of Indira Castillo, Bruna Tsuruda, Rafaela Reoliand Juliana Salgado surprised with a big announcement: the band has become the newest signee of the prestigious Italian label Frontiers Records, which has renowned bands in its catalog such as Mr. Big, Asia, Whitesnake, Jeff Scott Soto, among others, promising to take them to a new level, with opportunities to expand their reach and conquer the global market.

Their latest self-titled album, released last June and produced by the Brazilian Grammy-award-winning producer Giu Daga, delivers a powerful and exciting musical experience, featuring tracks in both English and Portuguese, setting the bar for the band to conquer a global audience.

Watch the Visualizer for "Into The Fade" Below.

Commenting on the new album, GLENN stated:

“Songwriting is deeply personal to me, and l generally write and record when I have something to say. It’s been nine years since I recorded my last solo album, 'Resonate.' There have been recordings and collaborations with other artists since 2016.

“When writing 'Chosen,' I went back to my life drawing board, writing about the human condition, love, hope, faith, and acceptance. I write about how I feel on the inside and not externally. My life is lived from within, in the present moment. It’s an album of soul food, and I’ve never been so grateful, right here, on planet earth. Music is the healer!"

Vocalist, bassist, and songwriter GLENN HUGHES is a true original. No other rock musician has so distinctively blended the finest elements of hard rock, soul, and funk. His astonishing voice is his calling card; he's known as a singer's singer.

After a nine-year hiatus as a solo artist, GLENN HUGHES returns with 'Chosen,' a brand-new solo album that finds him at his most hard-rocking. Explosive and dynamic, 'Chosen'showcases HUGHES at his absolute best, both in songwriting and production. A truly captivating return!

Pre-Order 'Chosen' HERE

GLENN HUGHES, a native of Cannock, England, absorbed all kinds of influences, including early British hard rock, The Beatles, and, most importantly, American soul and R&B. The sleek Motown sound from Detroit and the gritty Stax/Volt sound from Memphis also left their mark on him.

 

GLENN HUGHES first found success in the early '70s with the band Trapeze, before joining Deep Purple in 1973 during a pivotal lineup change that introduced him and David Coverdaleto the group. Despite initial skepticism, the revamped band silenced critics with the release of‘Burn’ (1974), a powerful album that revitalized Purple’s sound and remains a classic.

 

During this era, the band headlined the iconic California Jam in front of over 300,000 fans, toured the world aboard their private jet, The Starship, and released two more studio albums, ‘Stormbringer’ and ‘Come Taste The Band,’ before disbanding in 1976.

 

GLENN's first solo album, ‘Play Me Out,’ was released in 1977. He joined former Pat Traversguitarist Pat Thrall to form Hughes/Thrall, which released an acclaimed self-titled album in 1982. Throughout the '80s and '90s, GLENN HUGHES made countless guest appearances (both credited and un-credited) as a vocalist, bass guitarist or songwriter on other artists' albums. The endless list includes, among others, Gary Moore, John Norum, and Tony Iommiof Black Sabbath.

 

Since 1992, GLENN has started a prolific solo career with a dozen studio albums where he explored all the different sides of his songwriting and influences: from hard rock to funk and more contemporary sounds. He collaborated – among others – with such musicians as Chad Smith, Dave Navarro, John Frusciante, and many others.

 

HUGHES also founded, or took part in, some amazing musical alliances such as California Breed (with Jason Bonham and Andrew Watt), Black Country Communion (with Joe Bonamassa) and The Dead Daisies.

 

GLENN recently collaborated with Robbie Williams on his new single “Rocket,” which was released on May 22nd, 2025. The track also features a collaboration from Tony Iommi and will be the first time GLENN has been featured on a record with Tony since 2005, when they released “Fused” together.

 

GLENN HUGHES has also recently joined forces with Satch Vai, a new collaboration by legendary guitar icons Joe Satriani and Steve Vai, by writing and singing on their new single “I Wanna Play My Guitar.”

British Melodic Rock Legends FM Release Anthemic Rock Single “Don’t Call It Love” + Music Video

Today, British melodic rock legends FM are pleased to release their new single “Don’t Call It Love,” the second single taken from their highly anticipated 15th studio album 'Brotherhood,' due out on September 5th via Frontiers Music Srl.

"Don't Call It Love" is a compelling rock anthem tailor-made for rock radio and arrives alongside an official music video, available below.

FM’s founding member and bassist Merv Goldsworthy comments on the new track:

’Don't Call It Love’ is an up-tempo old-school AOR track with a very 80s feel. It was one of the last songs written and recorded for the 'Brotherhood' album. It’s a definite candidate for the live set and rock radio.”

Check Out the Music Video for "Don't Call It Love"

It’s no surprise that FM’s upcoming album 'Brotherhood' continues to showcase their signature blend of hook-laden AOR and blues-tinged hard rock that solidifies their status as masters of the genre.

'Brotherhood' showcases a band at the top of their game with highlights including an infectious anthem "Living on the Run," anthemic rocker “Don’t Call It Love,” the punchy and powerful "Coming For You," and the emotionally charged "Time Waits For No One," all tracks that echo the spirit and melodic strength of FM’s early classics, while being unmistakably fresh and vibrant.

Opening track, "Do You Mean It," brings a bluesy, soulful vibe that echoes the Doobie Brothers’ classic “Takin’ It To The Streets” sound, setting the tone for the album. 'Brotherhood' also features one of FM’s most powerful ballads to date, "Just Walk Away" – a beautifully emotional song that highlights the band's mastery of melodic rock. Wrapping up the album is "The Enemy Within," a track that introduces exciting new sonic ideas while retaining the powerful and melodic qualities FM fans love.

Supporting vocals from a female guest choir add warmth and dynamic depth to "Do You Mean It" and "Just Walk Away," perfectly complementing Steve Overland’s consistently exceptional lead vocals.

Overland comments on the new album:

“I am proud of the new album. It is one of our strongest song albums to date. It is another milestone, as it’s FM’s 15th album. It’s very well-paced and has great variation in song styles throughout. The album’s big ballad, 'Just Walk Away,' is one of our best. I hope our fans feel the same way as we do about 'Brotherhood.'"

Australian Rock Sensation CASSIDY PARIS Unveils New Single "Stronger" Featuring Special Guest Pete Lesperance + Visualizer

Today, Australian rock sensation CASSIDY PARIS is thrilled to unveil her new single, “Stronger,” featuring a special guest appearance by Pete Lesperance of Harem Scarem, out now via Frontiers Music Srl. "Stronger" arrives accompanied by a visualizer, available to view below.

CASSIDY comments on the new single:

“This is a song about my experiences in life dealing with situations that can be difficult to get through. I thought it would be only fitting to record this as it's become an anthem to remind me that in life there will always be people who try and bring you down. I love performing this song on stage with my dad and Wicked Smile, even though some people thought I didn't belong here. A big thanks to all the people who got behind me on this and helped put my own stamp on this song - my dad, Paul Laine, Pete Lesperance, Pete Newdeck, Harry Hess & Frontiers Music.”

Watch the Visualizer for “Stronger"

As a teenager growing up in Australia, there’s likely very few others out there with ambitions of being a “rock star.” Especially considering rock music isn’t exactly regarded by the mainstream as the “coolest” thing in the 2020’s. However, 22 year old CASSIDY PARIS is an exception.

 

CASSIDY is determined to make rock music a ‘cool’ thing again and inspire a new generation of younger fans to not only listen to rock ‘n’ roll, but maybe even pick up a guitar, instead of a phone.

At the age of 11, CASSIDY met singer songwriter Paul Laine (ex Danger Danger, The Defiants), who developed a unique mentoring role. Paul took CASSIDY under his wing to help develop her as an artist and songwriter, collaborating with her in songwriting and producing her music.

 

From early on, CASSIDY has wanted to deliver a strong message through her music. In 2018 she released the song “Stand,” a heartfelt song about standing up for yourself as a young woman.

 

CASSIDY continues to deliver that message, promoting anti-bullying through performances at many schools around Melbourne, Australia and is an active campaigner for the worldwide ‘Metalheads Against Bullying’ organization. CASSIDY has also built up a strong connection with her growing worldwide fanbase that has already seen her perform in America, Japan and the UK with the band.

CASSIDY PARIS released her debut full length album titled ‘New Sensation’ in December 2023 to critical acclaim. “My debut album is 80s infused, mixed with a current vibe. Influenced by Rock Gods such as Debbie Harry, Pat Benatar, Joan Jett & Lita Ford, I'm keen to put my spin on things in a modern original way”, she declared.

 

CASSIDY PARIS recently embarked on a European Tour where she supported AOR legends Harem Scarem in April 2025. She also performed at festivals such as Frontiers Rock Festival Italy and Chti Rock France. CASSIDY is looking forward to performing at the Monsters Of Rock Cruise in 2026 and returning to the UK for a full headline tour.

 

CASSIDY is endorsed by Fender Guitars, Ernie Ball & Wornstar Clothing.

Pete Lesperance - guitar solo

Finnish Rock Band SHIRAZ LANE Announces New Album ‘In Vertigo’ Set for Release on October 24, 2025 via Frontiers Music Srl

Today, the Finnish rock band SHIRAZ LANE is pleased to announce the release of their new studio album, 'In Vertigo,' on October 24, 2025, via Frontiers Music Srl. To celebrate the announcement, the band also shares its new single “Come Alive” alongside a visualizer, available below.

SHIRAZ LANE comments on the new track:

'Come Alive' is the perfect summer banger built on an irresistible groove. It’s the ultimate soundtrack for letting loose and living in the heat of the moment. The track has all the elements for a true SHIRAZ LANE classic - a quirky, distinctive guitar riff, seductive song structure, and an anthemic singalong chorus. The explosive production and addictive hooks make it a standout song. With this wild and untamed energy, we invite you to 'Come Alive' with us and enjoy the rush of pure Rock N’ Roll!”

Check Out the Visualizer for "Come Alive"

‘In Vertigo’ marks a bold new chapter in SHIRAZ LANE’s evolution. It’s an ambitious, modern, and emotionally charged rock album born from relentless creativity, exploration and collaboration.

 

'In Vertigo' was produced and co-written once again by longtime collaborator Per Aldeheim(Def Leppard, H.E.A.T, Pain). Packed with razor-sharp hooks, soaring melodies and high-octane attitude, 'In Vertigo' pushes the band’s sound into exciting new territory, fusing pop-metal energy with a modern production edge and fearless genre crossovers.

 

Preceded by the explosive singles “Dangerous,” “Bullsh!t,” and the emotionally charged “Plastic Heart,” the album showcases SHIRAZ LANE’s evolution while staying true to their raw rock roots.

 

With Aldeheim’s polished yet powerful production and standout performances by Hannes Kett (vocals), Jani Laine (lead guitar), Miki Kalske (rhythm guitar), Joel Alex (bass), and Ana Vilkkumaa (drums), 'In Vertigo' is the band’s most daring and dynamic release to date.

 

Brilliantly unpredictable and unapologetically melodic, 'In Vertigo' proves that SHIRAZ LANEis not just riding the wave of modern melodic rock, they’re reshaping it!

Pre-Order 'In Vertigo' HERE

Hailing from Vantaa, Finland, SHIRAZ LANE started their musical journey in 2011. Their vision of a perfect blend of sonic combustion and elegant delicacy started to blossom and reach its potential when the current line-up was solidified in 2014 and the band released their first EP'Be The Slave Or Be The Change.'

 

The band gained great international attention from the very beginning, and soon the young Finns were flying from Japan to South America, playing in Europe’s coolest clubs & summer festivals and had their warm first contact also with the US audience on the Monsters of Rockcruise.

 

SHIRAZ LANE resonates through their double-edged guitar sound (provided by Jani Laineand Miki Kalske), percussive ground-pounding clockwork (Ana Vilkkumaa, drums & Joel Alex, bass) and the supersonic melodies chanted by lead singer Hannes Kett. They are one of the most intriguing and entertaining bands in the current Hard Rock scene, bringing in a fresh breeze in terms of both compositions and live performance.

 

In addition to their debut EP, other most notable releases include the albums 'For Crying Out Loud,' 'Carnival Days,' 'Vibration I,' 'Forgotten Shades Of Life' and 'Acoustic Archives.'

 

Although wearing inspiration and paying homage to their predecessors, the sound and style of SHIRAZ LANE is unique, bold and contemporary. This has manifested in collaborations such as extensive international touring (sharing stages with bands such as KISS, Deep Purple, H.E.A.T & Crashdïet), national TV appearances, the gaming world and, most importantly, an exponentially growing & dedicated fanbase around the world.
