From Red Voodoo's website: Sacramento’s rock band RED VOODOO is ready to take on the world with their debut album “BRING IT BACK” produced by Tesla’s guitarist, Frank Hannon. Red Voodoo’s sound is inspired by rock bands such as Van Halen, Sammy Hagar, Boston, and Rush. The album embodies the new generation of rock n’ roll and what music is all about. From straight forward rock songs to emotionally driven ballads, each song tells a story. Red Voodoo is Dino McCord (lead vocals), Brandon Paul (lead guitar), Andrew Edwards (bass guitar), and Nick Pesely (drums). “Bring It Back” is out everywhere now! RED VOODOO gained national attention during the summer of 2020 with their #1 Underground radio hit RISE UP, a song and video that expressed their feelings about isolation during the Covid-19 crisis and attracted the ears of their musical hero Sammy Hagar. Dino visited the legend for his birthday bash at Cabo Wabo and was invited to sing onstage with Sammy for a set of acoustic songs.

Press release from Steelheart Records: STEELHEART Records is very proud to announce the signing of STEVE EMM to join the label’s always expanding bands roster Out of the dark & into the light of the Melodic Rock/AOR realm! After many past and present collaborations with underground bands in the Milan area, the talented multi-instrumentalist Steve Emm (aka Stefano Mainini) last year decided to start his own Hard Rock/AOR project, simply called after his name. The demo EP (self-launched during late 2019) immediately caught the attention of STEELHEART Records, that offered Steve the chance to complete a full-length album. The result is simply amazing: 10 incredible songs, written, performed and sang out in the vein of the legendary era of the genre, with clear references to bands like Signal, Lion, King Cobra, Fortune, Icon and Streets. The debut-album, “First Strike”, is an homage to a sound that has been part of Steve’s life since his youth and that still is in the hearts of many, and will be released late 2020.

From FB: ANNOUNCEMENT We'd like to announce that our debut full length album will be titled 'Wait for the Night'. The release date will be September 24th.

The rest of the album:

New song taken from 'The Phantom Tomorrow' (out June 4). I like it.

New project featuring Héctor Pérez and Jesús Espín (91 Suite, Secret). "Akiba Music is the brainchild of a young spanish musician, Héctor Pérez, he loves the japan manga comic scene and that is the real inspiration to create his music. Also a big lover of the computer games world and videogames. His first musical project is now a reality and sounds extremely melodic and full of dinamyc music in the vein of classic AOR bands from the 80s." www.facebook.com/akibamusic
