After having to cancel their first UK tour in 2020 due to Covid, Norwegian Grammy-nominated Pop/Rock band Tora, fronted by guitar heroine and Instagram phenomenon, Tora Dahle Aagård, is finally set for the UK next month, with two exclusive shows, firstly at Guilford's Boileroom on Sunday 24th September, followed by Putney's Half Moon in London the following night, and today's Video Of Day of 'Waste Of A Pretty Face', is taken from their third album, 'Seventeen'. Celebrated for their raw and energtic shows, 'Seventeen' was released last year and features timeless and catchy tunes from the quintet, comprising International Ambassador for Marceau Guitars, Tora (guitar and lead vocals), who's also renown for her playful virtuosity and mesmerising stage presence, plus Isak Seltveit (bass), Guri Tranås (backing vocals), Anders Brønstad (guitar) and Magnus Galguften (drums).

Ahead of her appearance at Stow-on-the-Wold's Berrybank Blues this Thursday, and a track that is both true to the original, but brings her trademark vocals into the mix, along with the energy of her band and her reconstructed interpretation of the second verse, Elles Bailey released a one-off, standalone single last Friday, with the award-winner's take on one of her favourite tracks, ‘Long Road Ahead’, by Sixties/Seventies duo Delaney & Bonnie, of which this stunning version is also one of today's six of the best 'Tuesday Rocks!' Tracks Of The Day, complemented by five further recent and forthcoming releases from Infected Rain, Calico Jack, Rat Boogie, Klubber Lang and Beyond God.

Tombstone Blue join today's The Zach Moonshine Show Podcast Of The Day, to play and talk about their upcoming show at Tennessee Metal Devastation Music Fest 2023, plus there's music from Abused & Neglected, Half Hollow, Johnny Reed, Midnight, Cavalera Conspiracy, Gutted Alive, S.N.A.F.U., Capra, Cryophilic, The Band Repent, Cannibal Corpse, Torrential Void, GWAR, Suppressant, Eternal Rot, Pelvic Meatloaf, St. Madness, Zakk Sabbath and Zach Moonshine's BDF.

Opening next year for Eater and Bad Nerves at London’s Dingwalls on Saturday 27th January, and although a more guitar driven record than her debut predecessor, 'Cherry' (2021), Alt Rock artist, Tizane, has lost none of her ethereal magic on her long awaited follow up album, 'Forever Is Nothing', released in late June, a South East Londoner who can balance delicate vulnerability with the grungy riffs of a darker side of Pop, all with a Punk edge, such as her lead single, 'I'm Not Her', which is also one of today's six of the best 'Bank Holiday Monday Rocks!' Tracks Of The Day, complemented by five further recent and forthcoming releases from Dead Bait, Bird's View, Sonic Jesus, Echoing Twilight and Darkness Is My Canvas.

Following the release last October of their self-funded, eponymous debut album, 2023 has really taken off for Scarborough based Rock band, This House We Built, with a number of live dates lined up including Peterborough's Nene Valley Rock Festival this Friday, and their recently released fourth single taken from the ten-track album, 'Nobody's Fool', is today's Video Of The Day. Indeed, the hard rockers from North Yorkshire filmed their video in the quaint town of Pickering, all within their four hour time schedule, with the lads in the video being supplied free haribos and fizzy drinks to keep energy levels up, and we're assured that no children nor mogwai were harmed during the making of it!

The follow-up to the critically-acclaimed debut album, 'Blacken the Skies' (2021), the Terminal formula of Industrial Glam has been updated with "more Industrial, more Glam" on 'The New Republic', released on Metropolis Records on Friday, as Thomas Mark Anthony makes his case for being the genre's best lyricist, weaving grand themes of power, zealotry and corruption through complex rhyme and anthemic choruses, of which the album single, 'The Sin of the Sanctified', 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 Stellar Knights, Filter, Para Lia, Massive Scar Era and Pyramaze.

Beastie's latest Rock Show, originally broadcast live at www.voodooradio.online at midday last Thursday, is today's Podcast Of The Day, 90 minutes of chelp, chunter and wonderful Rock music, featuring Deep Purple, Queensryche, Krokus, Jefferson Starship, Scarlet Rebels, The Cadillac Three (pictured) and more.

With this year's Reading Festival coincidentally ending today, BMG Records continue their new series of limited edition vinyl reissues and deluxe CDs from Slade, with the release of 'Beginnings' and 'Alive! At Reading' on Friday 15th September, of which their live Reading set opener, 'Take Me Bak 'Ome', is today's Video Of The Day. With a chart career that has spanned three decades, Slade have become a firm favourite in the hearts of Pop fans all over the world, with 'Beginnings' now released on limited edition transparent yellow and orange splatter vinyl, while 'Alive! At Reading', sees the full festival performance made available for the first time ever on vinyl.

Tracks Of The Day include just some of the great artists taking part, including Brave Rival, Big River, Rob Tognoni, Layla Zoe, Vanja Sky and JFK Blue.

"That was it until Marsden got the nod from ‘de management’ to do an encore. One final anecdote as Bernie proudly announced it was his 35th wedding anniversary – and dedicated it to his wife and the geezer who played at his wedding – Gary Moore! That was it – the missing link. Not since the passing of Gary have I seen someone switch from Rock to Blues and vice-versa so easily during a set. I’ll admit ‘Walking By Myself’ brought a tear to my eye and was the icing on the cake – in my opinion the best set of the day." That was part of our take on Bernie Marsden's set at Ramblin' Man Fair in July 2015 (Video Of The Day), and yesterday Conquest Music very sadly issued a statement on behalf of the family of the 72 year-old ex-Whitesnake guitarist: "It is with deep sadness we announce the death of Bernie Marsden. Bernie died peacefully on Thursday evening with his wife, Fran, and daughters, Charlotte and Olivia, by his side. Bernie never lost his passion for music, writing and recording new songs until the end."

Ahead of his UK tour that begins next month alongside Phil Wilson on drums and Charlie Rachael Kay on bass, last month, resilient, London-based, Fedora-sportin’ British Blues-Rocker, Jack J Hutchinson, released his first single, ‘Constellations’, that hits you right from the get-go with Jack's powerful Rock guitar and his impassioned vocals, taken from his brand-new 10-track album, ‘Battles’, that's due out next year on Friday 9th February via Earache Digital Distribution, of which Hutchinson's single is also one of today's six of the best 'Friday Rocks!' Tracks Of The Day, complemented by five further recent and forthcoming releases from Justice Theory, Bloodred Hourglass, Crabe, Restless Spirit and Iron Allies.
