In the ever-evolving landscape of rock music, few bands emerge straight out of the gate with the raw energy and undeniable talent that Silveroller brings to the scene. Hailing from the UK, this new rock band is poised to make waves in the music scene with their swagger and electrifying sound that echoes the legends of Humble Pie, Muddy Waters, Black Crowes, etc.  They are back to basics delivering just pure rock n roll at its finest. Silveroller’s music is a potent blend of rock and blues, capturing the essence of classic rock while infusing it with a modern twist.  Their debut in 2023 with Hold marked the beginning of what promises to be an illustrious career. From their first release, it was evident that Silveroller has a unique ability to channel the spirits of the greats while carving out their own distinct identity in the music [Read More]

  Hard rockers CACTUS have released a video for their track, One Way or Another featuring dUg Pinnick and Ted Nugent.  The song is off their new album, Temple of Blues – Influence & Friends. Ted Nugent shares about the song, I was raised and inspired by the American rock founding fathers Chuck Berry, Bo Diddly, Little Richard, James Brown and allthings Motown soul music. Vanilla Fudge epitimised the combination of all that fiery music. When my Motor City music monsters Jim McCarty and Rusty Day teamed up with the most powerful rhythm section of Tim Bogart and Carmine Appice to form Cactus, I thought my musical world would surely spin off its axis! The raw Detroit energy of Rusty and Jim with the definitive thrust of Tim and Carmines richter scale groove made every band in the world practice harder! Cactus were a serious force to reckon with. dUg Pinnick shares about the song, “It was 1971, Led Zeppelin, ZZ Top, Deep Purple and Yes were my go to bands, and one day I went to visit [Read More]

Ida Mae releases new single, Tomorrow’s Just Too Far

June 7, 2024

British duo Ida Mae have just released their new single, Tomorrow’s Just Too Far. The new single was co-produced by Bob Mackenzie and Ida Mae’s Chris Turpin and features bassist Nick Pini (Laura Marling, Tom Jones) and drummer Mikey Sorbello. Chris Turpin comments, “This is a ‘get out and run’ song. I wanted it to have the guttural voice of an old country blues song, the yodel of an old Guthrie or Rodger’s tune, tied up in the vernacular or an old English folk ballad. Picking up these threads I wrote it late at night in streams of consciousness on my Steel National Resonator Guitar. It was written at an incredibly important moment. We had a major sea change in our lives. Our young daughter had become a toddler having taken her across America and Europe on tour and new musical and business projects loomed on the horizon. All this whilst dealing with some of the trauma of my early life. I had dived deeper into older folk ballads and stories to find solace and fresh meaning. Drawing parallels with great folk [Read More]
