STORACE 'Live And Let Live' Album Reissue - Special Edition with Bonus Live Album Out NOW via Frontiers Music Srl

Swiss rock legend Marc Storace’s own band, STORACE, announce the release of the album reissue of their first record 'Live And Let Live', in a special edition including a bonus live album, out now via Frontiers Music Srl.

The focus track, “Midnite Maniac” and the accompanying visualizer, are also available now.

Marc Storace describes the new single, by saying:

“'Midnite Maniac' is a popular Krokus song from the 80’s that Krokus never play! It came off 'The Blitz' album. Back in the 80’s, MTV had the video on full rotation! It talks about a female serial killer.”

Talking about the album release, Storace comments:

 Krokus had stopped to exist because of Covid and no one really knew what the outcome of the pandemic would be, so not wasting time I started working on a solo album! 'Live And Let Live' is rich in melodic vocals, colourful riffs, great guitar solos, many hooks and a solid driving rhythm section!!”

Watch the Music Video for "Midnite Maniac" below.

On the bonus album, Marc Storace notes:

“During the past three intensive years playing throughout Switzerland we recorded many gigs and the live album features the best of the crop, highlighting songs we recorded during hot performances in Zürich’s Hallenstadion as special guests of KISS, and The Scorpions, and whilst sharing the famous 'Rock The Ring Festival' stage with Alice Cooper and his notorious band."

 

“Included on the setlist are songs from Krokus which we never play, like 'Midnite Maniac' and 'To The Top'; also a beefed up version of 'Telephone Man' from my late seventies London band Eazy Money, he continues.

'Live And Let Live' is STORACE’s first official solo album. It was recorded during the 2021 lockdown of the Covid pandemic and was produced by Cyrill Camenzind and Massimo Buonanno at Powerplay Studios, near Zürich.

 

Cyrill, Massi, and Marc composed some of the songs together, and they played on the album which also features the talented musicians Marco Blöchlinger on bass, Christian Roffler on keys, Jean Pierre Von Dach on lead guitar, and Gee K, Micha Dettwyler and Céline Haleson backing vocals.

'Live And Let Live' was officially released in Switzerland on December 18, 2021, during a gig at the legendary Music-Club outside Bern called the “Mühle Hunziken." It was performed by the studio band, all except J.P. Von Dach, who had been replaced by Turi Wicki due to his heavy touring commitments with Joss Stone.

The first single, “Lady Of The Night” and the accompanying visualizer, are also available now.

Marc Storace describes the theme of the new single, by saying:

 “For this song, I was inspired by the Victorian story of 'The Lady With The Lamp,' or Florence Nightingale, a brave volunteer nurse who, against all odds, improved the horrific sanitary conditions to stop wounded soldiers from dying in hospital during the Crimean War of 1854.”

 

“'Lady Of The Night' pays tribute to the brave and selfless nurses who fought very hard to save the lives of countless victims of the coronavirus during the recent world epidemic!”, adds Storace.

 Krokus had stopped to exist because of Covid and no one really knew what the outcome of the pandemic would be, so not wasting time I started working on a solo album!

FRONTIERS ROCK FESTIVAL: Seven More Bands Confirmed!

Following last week’s announcement, Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announce the names of seven more confirmed bands that will perform at the FRONTIERS ROCK FESTIVAL, set to take place on April 25th, 26th, and 27th, 2025, at the Live Club in Trezzo sull’Adda (Milan).

The festival will feature 21 bands in three days – an unmissable experience for all Melodic Rock/Hard Rock fans. It will offer VIP experience packages and many other surprises that will be unveiled soon.

HAREM SCAREM

With the first two albums ('Harem Scarem' of 1991 and 'Mood Swings' of 1993) being the key to bringing these Canadian rockers to the attention of the worldwide audience, Harem Scaremkept on delivering high-quality music throughout the years, and the latest releases: 'Thirteen', 'United' and 'Change the World' are shining examples of it.

Tour after tour, the band has been able to build up a solid and passionate fan base. They will bring on stage - once again - their unique class and musicianship for a show that is expected to be no less than stellar!

MIKE TRAMP’S WHITE LION

Mike Tramp’s name became prominent in the music world with White Lion, starting in 1983. The band enjoyed a huge success worldwide thanks to four beautiful albums until they disbanded in 1992.

After a 4-year time spent with Freak Of Nature, Tramp kicked off his solo career in 1997. Since 2009, Mike Tramp has released nine studio albums, playing live, both as an acoustic solo artist and with a backing band, with no plans of slowing down anytime soon.

The singer/guitarist decided to start a new chapter in his career, re-imagining and re-recording select cuts from White Lion's catalog, bringing this experience live on stage. You’ll be led on an exciting journey through some real classics of the ‘80s and ’90s!

STORACE

Following the decision of Krokus (his band for 40 years!) to stop recording new music and limit their live appearances in 2018, rock legend Marc Storace returned to the scene in 2021, with his solo album 'Live And Let Live.'

Since May 2022, Marc has been performing with his new band and he spent 2023 and 2024 writing and producing the new album 'Crossfire,' a monster piece of Hard Rock, with songwriting shared between Storace, guitar-player Tommy Henriksen (Alice Cooper band) and drummer Pat Aeby (Krokus, Gotus).

 

TREAT

Building on the great success of their last albums (2010's 'Coup de Grace', 2016's 'Ghost Of Graceland', 2018's 'Tunguska', and 2022's 'The Endgame'), released after the band’s reunion in 2006, TREAT is still considered one of the best Melodic Hard Rock bands coming out of Europe as well as a fantastic live-act!

Their style of heavenly melodies, seductive arrangements, and impressive songwriting has the band truly at the top of the genre and always favorites for fans of the whole genre.

FM

FM is well known by all the fans of the genre for their big choruses, twin lead guitars and Steve Overland’s intimate, yet powerful vocals, and clean guitar sound!

Put together in 1984 by singer Overland and his brother, guitarist Chris (both formerly of Wildlife), along with drummer Pete Jupp and bassist Merv Goldsworthy, the band is celebrating their 40th Anniversary, with the release of their 14th studio album 'Old Habits Die Hard' accompanied, as always, by an extensive touring schedule throughout the UK, Europe and South America.

THE BIG DEAL

Coming from Serbia, THE BIG DEAL is a unique band in the melodic hard rock genre, as it features two outstanding vocalists, Ana Nikolic and Nevena Brankovic (who is also a highly skilled keyboard/piano player), along with the other three musicians.

Offering a catchy, driving yet powerful sound that is meant to appeal to both, melodic rock and hard rock fans, sound, look, explosive stage presence… they have everything, and they are ready to bring their brilliant musical offer (including some songs taken from the upcoming album 'Electrified') to the FRONTIERS ROCK FESTIVAL audience!

CASSIDY PARIS

Australian rocker Cassidy Paris has started her career at a very young age. At 21 years old, she has already released two sold-out EPs ('Broken Hearted' & 'Flirt'), performed multiple live shows all over her home country, and released her debut album, 'New Sensation,' with 11 tracks of energetic modern rock music.

Raised on classic hard rock and inspired by female rockers such as Lzzy Hale, Joan Jett, Pat Benatar, and Avril Lavigne, the fiercely determined young woman met singer/songwriter Paul Laine (Danger Danger, The Defiants) at the age of 11 (!) and he helped her to develop her style and songwriting.

Having already performed in America, the U.K., and Japan, CASSIDY PARIS can’t wait to play Italy for the very first time!

STORACE New Album 'Crossfire' Out Now Via Frontiers Music SRL

Swiss rock legend Marc Storace and his band, STORACE, have unleashed their electrifying new studio album, 'Crossfire', now available through Frontiers Music Srl. The album's intense lead single, "Adrenaline", arrives with a powerful accompanying lyric video.

Marc Storace describes the new single by saying:

'Adrenaline' is a song about passionate feelings arising from close encounters with the woman of my dreams!”

Watch the Lyric Video for "Adrenaline" Below.

On the release of 'Crossfire', Marc Storace expresses his excitement:

Tommy Henriksen, in spite of his tight touring schedule with Alice Cooper, The Hollywood Vampires, and his work with his Crossbone Skully, actually 'made time' to produce my 'Crossfire' album! Hell yeah, that’s what I call a good friend! Creating the songs with T felt like magic… And he even got the incredible Olle Romo, Mutt Lange’s very own engineer, to mix the album… Unbelievable! It was like a match made in heaven!! Play It Loud!!”

Pre-Order 'Crossfire' HERE

Maltese-born-Swiss musician Marc Storace started his exceptional musical career in 1970, with the Swiss cult progressive band TEA, which became a very successful band and with whom he released 5 LPs. Marc gained attention for his frontmanship and high-pitched raunchy vocal tone.

In 1979, Marc became the voice of Krokus, the most successful Hard Rock band from Switzerland. After their first album with Marc, 'Metal Rendez-Vous,' Krokus played several world tours, sold over 15 million records, and won many gold and platinum awards.

After the group disbanded, Marc formed the band Blue, who released their self-titled album in 1991, including the widely known hit “You Can't Stop The Rainfall”.

In the 90s and 2000s, Marc acted in two feature films (Anuk and Handyman) and reached gold status with various Krokus formations and three LPs. With many guest appearances such as on Rock Meets Classic, Sweet 50th Anniversary, Ken Hensley Live in Switzerland, Schubert In Rock, and on Manfred Ehlert's albums 'Amen' and the rock opera 'Test', Marc remained present with his fans.

In 2008, fans were surprised by the news that the original Krokus formation would be touring again. The success was tremendous: tours in USA, Japan, Europe and South America as well as 2 new studio LPs, which, in turn, earned platinum status. In December 2019, Krokus played a farewell concert at the sold-out Hallenstadion in Zurich.

At the beginning of 2021, Marc started working on his solo career as STORACE and at the end of 2021, he released his first solo album 'Live And Let Live.' In the middle of the pandemic, Marc started his first tour in Switzerland accompanied by the album's studio band. Since May 2022, Marc has been performing with his new band and rocking the stage like never before.

Marc spent 2023 and 2024 writing and producing the new album 'Crossfire,' a monster piece of Hard Rock, with songwriting shared between Marc Storace, guitar player Tommy Henriksen (Alice Cooper band) and drummer Pat Aeby (Krokus, Gotus).

'Crossfire,' produced by Tommy Henriksen and mixed by the award-winning engineer Olle Romo, features a collection of Hard Rock anthemic songs, with big choruses, great guitars, and an awesome rhythm section!
