From the rural parts of Sweden, behind Sweet Teeth's perfect smile and raw beauty is a perfect blend of catchy, Punky, fuzzy power Pop and Alternative Rock, as demonstrated on their new EP, 'Acid Rain', released tomorrow on Lövely Records, of which the title track is one of today's six of the best 'Thursday Rocks!' Tracks Of The Day, complemented by five further new and forthcoming releases from Sinestar, Polyfrenetics, Ben Sollberger Project, The New Bardots and Slamdinistas.

"Got Me Under Pressure’, 'Waitin’ For The Bus’ and ‘Jesus Left Chicago’ got everyone into the groove before their first big hitter of the evening - ‘Gimme All Your Lovin’ - was delivered along with that shiny car and the pretty girls in the background. Loved it. Back to the choreography and Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill played matching instruments for most of the set – a battered red guitar and bass plus also, if I’m not mistaken, those guitars from Back To The Future – the only disappointment of the night being that they didn’t rotate!" That was part our take when we saw ZZ Top at Wembley Arena just over six years ago, so we were obviously devastated to learn of Hill's death yesterday at the age of 72, and therefore dedicate today's Video Of The Day of 'Rough Boy' (featuring Jeff Beck), taken that very same night, in Dusty's memory.

Today's Podcast Of The Day from exactly four years ago today, was the last of our Ramblin' Man Fair interviews with AJ Vincent from Austin, Texas - heavy keys player in Heavy - Acid Rockers Scorpion Child, who were playing The Grooverider stage two hours later that Saturday (Day 2). We first saw Scorpion Child supporting Crobot at Camden's Underworld in November 2015 and we caught up with AJ and asked what had happened since then, including their latest album 'Acid Roulette' plus his new solo album 'Electric Kind of Love'.

As we always say - it might not be of BBC proportions but hopefully today's special 2014 WRC Bluesfest Podcast Of The Day will give you a flavour of an awesome Summer's day with quality tracks and interviews from The Tea Project, Damo Fawsett Band, David Sinclair Four, Robin Bibi (pictured), The Laura Holland Band, Absolution, The Mentulls, Nicky Moore & Danny Kyle and Aynsley Lister.

Following a number of years outside the genre, vocal/guitarist Geoff Carne returns to his Blues driven British Rock roots with his brand new album, 'Shakedown', a pure masterclass in Blues Rock, with plans for a touring version of The Raw Rox Band for early next year, of which, 'Break The Rules', a great rocking track, is today's, quirky, animated, Video Of The Day.

Despite the loss of Prog legends Focus, due to current Government Covid-19 protocols, the good news is that Mostly Autumn have now stepped in at short notice to play the Saturday at 'A New Day', taking place over the weekend of 20th to 22nd August at Mt Ephraim Gardens, Faversham, and today's six of the best 'A New Day Rocks!' Tracks Of The Day are taken from some of the many bands taking part, namely, Big River, The Sharpeez, Band Of Friends, Inglorious, The Mentulls and of course, Mostly Autumn.

Blues Rock artist Joe Bonamassa is back with a brand-new single, 'Notches', plus today's cinematically excellent Video Of The Day, directed by Paul van Kan, from his highly anticipated upcoming album, due out later this year. This first single is a foot-stomping, fist-pounding dose of Rock mastermind that pays homage to the artist’s resilient history, with an eye on the future as he continues to bend genres, break down walls and defy the odds of the music industry. Indeed, Joe belts out the Blues-tinged lyrics in 'Notches' with a vocal range that gets even better with each release, diving deeper into his Rock capabilities, as he takes no prisoners with this hard-hitting anthem and holds nothing back, delivering a fresh unchartered sound that is not like anything he’s done before.

This week's Blues On The Radio Podcast Of The Day takes a look at how Coulsdon's Tuesday Night Music Club is bringing live music back from 3rd August, so there's very little chat, just glorious music from Catfish, Saints & Sinners, Bad Day Blues Band, Delta Fuse, The Lucky 13s, Connor Selby, Ash Wilson, Rebecca Downes, The Head Hunters Blues Band, Ian Siegal, The Mentulls (pictured), Alex Hamilton, Tom Killner and When Rivers Meet.

Conjuring up the 60’s Psychedelic spirit with a bit of modern Alternative madness, Progressive Grunge Rock trio, Songs of Petrichor, have released their second single, 'She's In Black', another sneak peek of what's to come off of their self-titled full-length album, due to be released this November via Wall of Sound Records, which is one of today's six of the best 'Tuesday Rocks!' Tracks Of The Day, complemented by five further new and recent releases from Prayer Line, In/Vertigo, Ren Marabou, Desert Near The End and Kaiser and the Machines of Creation.

With Covid-19 protocols firmly in place (go to https://www.stonedeadfestival.co.uk/covid), a sold out Stonedead Festival is 100% on, as it returns to the Newark Showground for the Friday Night Rock Party II on 27th August plus the main event the following day, with both now taking part in the main outside arena, and today's six of the best 'Stonedead Rocks!' Tracks Of The Day are taken from six of the many bands taking part, namely The Treatment, Massive Wagons, The Hot Damn!, Massive, Kris Barras Band and Wayward Sons.

For half a century, the definitive band of the Progressive music genre, Yes, release their new studio album, 'The Quest', on Inside Out Music/Sony Music on Friday 1st October, and the first track to be taken from the new album, 'The Ice Bridge', that addresses the dangers of climate change, is today's Video Of The Day. Containing eleven songs, eight on the main CD with three extra tracks on a bonus CD, 'The Quest' was recorded across the globe, with Steve Howe (who also produced the album), Geoff Downes and Jon Davison, taking part in sessions that took place in the UK, while Alan White and Billy Sherwood got together in the studio in the US.

"It may be a different line up, and a slightly different sound, but it’s still all about Nathan James and his incredible voice. Although take nothing away from the other five members – great musicians all. The short set includes a number of radio friendly classics that has the crowd singing along with James, although never able to match his presence, including tracks like 'Taking The Blame', 'Holy Water', and the final 'Until I Die'. The latter being restarted when microphone trouble caused a minor crisis before the placated James finally provided the closing number to the standard that the crowd had come to expect." That was part of our Inglorious Ramblin' Man Fair review from just over two years ago, and later at the back of the Main stage we caught up with vocalist Nathan James, lead guitarist Danny Dea Cruz and second guitarist Dan Stevens for an interview which is today's Podcast Of The Day.
