Snowy White – Driving On The 44 – 2022


Brand new studio album from the former Thin Lizzy guitarist who was also often behind the scenes with Pink Floyd (‘The Wall’ tour) and later Roger Waters. Snowy White has developed his very own ‘English’ blues style, which is characterized by clear, no-frills blues phrases, which he refines with harder riffs. The songs come across as very direct, human and authentic – as if he wanted to address every listener personally. Few master this art as well as the British guitarist and singer.

Cosmograf – Heroic Materials 2022


William ‘Billy’ May looks back on his life at the age of 99 and realizes the world has completely changed since he was a young man put into an impossible scenario, defending his country from the air. He no longer recognizes much of the modern world but understands that the human race must live in a different way in the future.

Heroic Materials is an album about change, our refusal to accept it, but also recognizing that it’s essential to our survival. The story centers on a WWII Spitfire pilot who laments a lost golden era, but reflects that the human race must change its ways in order to preserve our existence on the earth.

Robin Armstrong, is once again joined by drummer, Kyle Fenton, and there is a special guest appearance from ex-Big Big Train k

THAYER – St. JAMES – The Lost Tapes 2022 EP


We’ve been friends a long time. We were talking the other day and realized that we’ve known each other, written songs, and played in bands together since we were 18 years old. That’s well over 40 years! Here’s five songs we uncovered recently that we’d almost forgotten about.

These recordings were saved for more than 30 years on 2” analog multitrack tape and two track mixes on 1/4” tape, but were unfortunately disintegrated beyond use. After some digging, a DAT tape and a cassette were the only usable sources we could find. These recordings were almost lost forever. Now thanks to a bit of digital polishing, these songs have come to life! We thought they should see the light of day.

Compass – Theory Of Tides 2022


On July 22, the project band Compass with singer / songwriter Steve Newman (Newman, Burn) will release their new studio album “Theory Of Tides” via the company Escape Music. Here’s how to read a press release:

THE CONCEPTION
The Compass story began back in December 2017 when singer songwriter Steve Newman decided to write a few songs that musically would step outside the barriers imposed by many years writing for his own band Newman. This was to be something very different, liberating, both musically and lyrically, from anything he had created before, with the f
