Taken from their latest, international award-winning album, 'Who I Might Be',Destiny Band Oz have not only shared their fifth single for the festive season, 'It's the Gift', but they have also recorded a Christmas message as well, both of which are part of today's 'Christmas Eve Rocks!' Tracks Of The Day, complemented by five other rockin' Christmas tunes from Pepperkid2, Trucker Diablo, Magnum, Scandroid and IQ.

"While being individually distinctive, each song maintains the overall homogenous feel of the album, which is one reason I suppose why it stays on the metaphorical turntable (no vinyl available for reviewers sadly, even with Christmas looming); this artist takes the listener on a smooth Bluesy ride that will leave them wanting more of the same. This album should come with a sticker that says “Aural satisfaction guaranteed”. Superb."

"This is as perfect a set of covers as you could wish for; having listened to the album many times, it just gets better each time and has whetted the appetite for volume three in the series, coming out next year. In fact, why stop at three; with playing this excellent there’s no reason not to dive deeper into the treasure trove of Blues standards and give them a respectful but fresh lick of paint. The petition starts here."

Established in 1996 by composer, producer, guitarist and vocalist, Shak Cohen, Blue Svengalis is an Alternative Rock/Pop project, who has just released a remastered album, 'Early Years', which brings together some of his best material from 1996 to 2003, and it's raw, energetic, experimental and above all, fun, of which the session mix, 'You Didn't Tell Me', is today's Video Of The Day. Often described as sunny, catchy and uplifting, Shak's songs draw from a wealth of 50s, 60s and 70s influences such as Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, The Beach Boys and The Ramones. Reviving the project after an approximate fifteen year hiatus, the band expanded last year to introduce American session drummer Joanne Ruocco plus vocalists Claire Frances and Belinda Campbell, whilst retaining longstanding bassist Sasha Titov and saxophonist Matt Wates. Indeed, over the last year or so, between lockdowns and Covid restrictions, the group recorded six songs at Tilehouse Studios, with Luke Oldfield engineering and co-producing, plus Pat Kenneally joining on keyboards.
