Given their tour was cut short last year by the Coronavirus pandemic and eager to show their fans how their new songs sounded live, yesterday Finnish rockers One Desire released their first live album, 'One Night Only : Live In Helsinki', of which 'Hurt' is today's Video Of The Day. Captured in October 2020, in front of a restricted audience at the On The Rocks Club in Helsinki, the band had originally hit the road in March last year to promote the then forthcoming release of their second album, ‘Midnight Empire’, out two months later. Those who have already had the pleasure of seeing the group play live know how incredible they are in that setting; now everyone else has the opportunity to do so!

"So the Fall closed out with The Revivalists on their Texas tour. They made a stop in Houston less than a mile from my new digs, so we had a fun pre-party and gathered a crowd to go see the boys rock Houston. They never disappoint. This show’s highlights included a few Who covers, including 'My Generation', and their encore was 'Baba O’Reilly'. They really rocked it and were hitting on all cylinder’s with a classic Revivalist line-up that included one of my personal favorites, 'Masquerade', and the usual 'Criminal', 'Not Turn Away', 'Catching Firefly’s', 'Concrete' and 'Souls to Loud'. That was part of our Message From America from 2014, and The Revivalists success story continues as they return for their first shows back on the road in nearly a year, when they livestream tonight and tomorrow from the historic Red Rocks Amphitheatre for two nights of music under the stars here https://boxoffice.mandolin.com/collections/the-revivalists-live-from-red-rocks-amphitheatre-2021
