We were truly sorry to learn of the tragic death of Storm Warning's sublime guitarist Bob Moore earlier this week at the age of 63. Lauded by the UK Blues press as one of the top contemporary Blues Rock bands in the UK, we would like to extend our deepest condolences to Bob's family, Derek White and his band mates, plus Bob's fans and friends, at this very sad time.

Badass Rock band, Kings County, out of Orlando, Florida, is back today with their latest single, 'Bleed These Tears', together with a striking new Video Of The Day, that will blow you away. The track was produced by Grammy Award winning producer/engineer Chuck Alkazian (Pop Evil, Soundgarden, Tantric) at legendary Pearl Sound Studios (Asking Alexandria, Eminem, Filter), and it also features Ted Nugent drummer Jason Hartless plus a kick-ass solo from Ratt guitarist Jordan Ziff. Originally slated to be a live performance and conceptual video, the band, consisting of Rob Dexter (vocals, bass), Steve Bell (guitars, vocals), Joe Lopez (drums) and Bill Kania (guitars, vocals), decided to take it to the next level with an old creepy doll lyric video, given the current health situation.

Fran McGillivray and Mike Burke are doing a fundraiser live stream here at 7pm tonight for Camden's award-winning independent live music venue, the Green Note in London. Part of the #saveourvenues campaign, Fran & Mike have teamed up with the Music Venue Trust, who have recently launched the crowdfunder to prevent the permanent closure of the Green Note plus other grassroots music venues, to allow them to continue in the future to host nightly Rock, Folk, Blues, Roots, World, Jazz and Country gigs.

LA rockers Bullets and Octane’s brand new single and today's Video Of The Day, 'Give Me A Reason', is an audacious anthem with a hooky chorus that shines, which is taken from their new album, 'Riot Riot N Roll', that was released at the end of last month through Bad MoFo Records/Cargo Records UK. Backed up by their strong songwriting abilities, dedication and determination to their craft, 'Riot Riot N Roll' also features 'Ain’t Gonna Be Your Dog', co-written with ex Buckcherry guitarist Keith Nelson. Bullets and Octane toured extensively for their previous album 'Waking Up Dead', reminding us that music can still be straight to the point, efficient, honest and exciting, so brace yourself for this next chapter.

Today's Track Of The Day, 'Red White & Blue', is the first single from the new Ron Keel Band album 'South X South Dakota', recently released by HighVolMusic/HVM Entertainment. The song was a Top 30 hit for Lynyrd Skynyrd in 2003, shortly after the 9/11 attacks, and Keel feels the song resonates just as loudly now as it did then. His Southern roots run deep, having been born in Georgia and gotten his start in Nashville before landing on the Sunset Strip in the middle of the 80’s Hollywood heyday. Evolving into what has become known as the Metal Cowboy, Keel has spent most of the past two decades combining his passions for Heavy Metal and Country music into a hybrid style that sounds surprisingly like… you guessed it: Southern Rock!

Adrian Smith, the legendary lead guitarist of 100-million-album-selling band Iron Maiden, is well known in the Maiden community as a fisherman, and a former cover star of coarse-fishing bible the Angler's Mail (biggest chub of the season, August 2009). In his first, very personal, riverside memoir, 'Monsters of River & Rock', out on Thursday 3rd September, Smith takes us with him on his incredible journey, through the highs and lows of life on tour, and on the river-bank, as his fishing gear travels with him across the world. Charming, funny, and moving in equal measure, 'Monsters of River & Rock' is the ultimate fishing-fantasy armchair read, and is also the story of a Rock star in a fast-moving world who seeks peace and tranquillity at the water’s edge – wherever he is.

The legendary guitarist and songwriter of The Doors, and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Robby Krieger, will be releasing his first solo album in 10 years on Friday 14th August, namely ‘The Ritual Begins At Sundown’, of which his new song, 'Hot Head', is today's Video Of The Day. Returning for his 9th solo album and his first since 2010's Grammy nominated ‘Singularity,’ the album also features Frank Zappa alumnus Jock Ellis (trombone), Sal Marquez (trumpet) and Tommy Mars (keys), as well as AeB Bryne (flute), Vince Denim (sax), Chuck Manning (sax), Joel Wackerman (drums) and Joel Taylor (drums).

Initially known as The Paralydium Project, Paralydium's first EP release in 2015 was highly regarded in the Progressive Metal community, and it's long awaited follow-up, ‘Worlds Beyond’ (Video Of The Day), out this Friday 12th June, will be one of the Prog Metal albums of 2020. Founded by John Berg, the guitarist wanted to create a mindbending sound comprised of an innovative mixture of hard hitting heavy riffs, textured landscapes and powerful grooves. With influences ranging from Symphony X and Pagan’s Mind to Seventh Wonder and Dream Theater, this debut album shows that they have swiftly developed their own sound and recorded a set of expertly crafted melodic, rhythmic and powerful songs.

Today's latest Blues On The Radio Track Of The Day brings you an hour filled with music from Geoff Achison, JT Lauritsen, Norman Beaker, The Yardbirds, Victor Wainwright, Katie Knipp, Bridget Kelly Band, Too Slim and the Taildraggers, McGillivray Burke (pictured), Lilly Martin, John Cee Stannard, Nick Steed, Birdmens and Dion.

There’s a lot of current talk about the crossover between Country and Rock, which makes now the perfect time for the ground-breaking 'The Outsiders' by Eric Church and his band to be getting a re-issue via Snakefarm Records this Friday 12th June. The most successful Country album of 2014, it's a true statement of intent, defining the North Carolina story-teller’s view that song-writing shouldn’t be restrained by convention or by style. Indeed, ‘The Outsiders’ was boldly blurring those Rock/Country lines six years ago, with tracks such as ‘That’s Damn Rock & Roll’ plus the title song showing that Eric and his band needed no encouragement to move into the Rock ‘n’ Roll fast lane.

Caligula’s Horse, a leading light in contemporary Progressive Metal worldwide, released their fifth album ‘Rise Radiant’ last month via Inside Out Music, of which their third single, ‘Valkyrie’, is today's Track Of The Day. Comprised of 8 tracks, it's produced by the group’s Sam Vallen, and mixed by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Devin Townsend Project, Leprous), and the record is their most focussed and potent artistic statement to date. Hailing from Brisbane, ‘Rise Radiant’ is an uncompromising exploration of the human experience dressed in vivid musical colour and virtuosic performances. It is an anthem for the regeneration of self-belief, an exploration of the themes of legacy, and a rallying cry for survival.
