For fans of Rock/Progressive Rock, the debut solo single, 'Dust And Stone', by Long Earth vocalist Martin Haggarty is released today in aid of War Child, accompanied by today's poignant Video Of The Day by award-winning filmmaker Ross Eaglesham. Also featuring Amanda Lehmann (Steve Hackett) - vocals/lead guitar, Hew Montgomery (Abel Ganz) - piano, Trev Turley (Mojo Preachers) - bass and Jon Farley (The Hollow Moon) - drums, 'Dust And Stone' is Haggerty's first release under his own name, given it was stylistically different to the rest of the material Long Earth are currently working on, with their third album, 'An Ordinary Life', due to be released next year.

Further to the release of his fifth solo album, 'Crossing the Great Divide' via Black Sea Music, plus his appearance on the Superjam Stage at Kent's Black Deer Festival at Eridge Park (pictured) both in June last year, exactly two years ago this month we interviewed singer-songwriter Franky Perez, recorded prior to his breathtaking London showcase, of which our chat with Franky is today's Podcast Of The Day.

Also returning to the UK and Ireland next year for nine dates in May and June, 'The Prize' is a Rock ‘n' Roll roadmap to a crossroads that Hannah has been unknowingly gravitating towards for over a decade, with the empowering ten-song album also featuring both Greta Van Fleet's Sam Kiszka on bass, keys and organ, plus Daniel Wagner, holding it down on drums.

The Austrian outfit boast an internationally successful chamber of uncompromisingly bizarre Rock music, which has gained them a reputation for their originality, characterised by their sophisticated symphonic arrangements as well as extensive Psychedelic improvisations, while their English special guests blend 60s and early 70s Folk, Prog and Rock, think Fleetwood Mac meets Opeth, Crosby Stills & Nash meets Yes.

Stiff Little Fingers sticksman Steve Grantley is back, as his own critically acclaimed band, RT-Zed, has now morphed into Steve Grantley and the Zed Hedz, with their debut four track EP, ‘Poison Ivy Where Did You Go?’, out on Friday 1st December, featuring Steve on drums and vocals, John Magner on guitar and Jamie Alleyne on bass, that celebrates The Cramps legendary guitar player's 70th birthday, of which the title track is also one of today's six of the best 'Tuesday Rocks!'

Originally together ten years ago, but then "life happened", Alternative Rock three-piece Kildesco are back together and ready to give it another go, with their recent single, 'Wasteland', sounding somewhere in between Coldplay, Foo Fighters and Porcupine Tree, that's not only taken from the Cambridge formed band's forthcoming debut album, 'Awake', but is also one of today's six of the best 'Sunday Rocks!' Tracks Of The Day, complemented by five further recent and forthcoming releases from CR & The Nones, I, The Divided, Phil Jamieson, James Rivera's Metal Wave and Dyecrest.
