Further additions to the third annual Stone Free Festival, happening over the weekend of 16th/17th June at London's O2 Arena, have recently been announced. New York City Rockers Warrior Soul, who with their mix of Hard Rock, Punk and Metal, will be setting the Indigo stage alight on Saturday alongside Belgian Blues-Rockers Triggerfinger and German Heavy-Rock biker-duo The Picturebooks. Now added to the Big Entrance Stage on Saturday will be KilliT, with their sublime guitars and powerhouse vocals, whilst on Sunday Jared James Nichols, with his hair-raising and raucous Blues, will be tearing up the Indigo alongside Cardiff’s Godsticks who will be opening proceedings with their hard-hitting Progressive Rock. Sunday also sees two new additions to the Big Entrance stage with Fire Red Empress and their thunderous riff-fueled Hard Rock and London’s Vambo with their raw 70s-inspired Rock’n’Roll.

Formed in late 2014, Perfect Plan (Track Of The Day) signed to Frontiers in the summer of 2017. The label were excited by the band’s musical mixture of classic Scandinavian AOR (Work of Art, Treat, early Europe) and nods to legends like Giant, Foreigner and Journey, while their subsequent debut album 'All Rise', due to be released on Friday 20th April, is influenced by both modern as well as classic AOR/Melodic Rock of the 80’s. The band features superb singer Kent Hilli together with Rolf Nordström on guitar, P-O Sedin on bass, Fredrik Forsberg on drums and Leif Ehlin on keyboards. Perfect Plan are ready to take on the world and become one of your favourite Melodic Rock artists.

2017 saw Federal Charm play a number of high profile gigs including supporting Brian Downey’s Alive & Dangerous at Nells Jazz & Blues in November. These shows introduced the new line-up including new lead singer Tom Guyer and drummer Josh Zahler to old and new fans alike giving them a taste of the new direction and musical impact of Federal Charm’s transformation. The band have just completed recording their highly anticipated third album (scheduled for release this Fall) and will showcase their explosive new sound and new songs on their forthcoming UK tour next month beginning with Norwich's Open Club on Saturday 14th April. Very special guest at the Bristol and Newcastle shows is Gabriella Jones featuring Planet Rock radio’s Wyatt Wendels on drums!

A show that cannot be missed! Angel Forrest, North America's No.1 Blues Diva, will be performing in concert at The Half Moon, Putney tonight.

Given Angel's raucous, rollicking, Blues'n'Rock plus her incredible voice and stage presence - why not make the effort to go and see her! You'll be glad you did! Support is from The Sharpees.

"He blew us away, man what talent so young!" That was the considered opinion of one WRC member who saw Felix Rabin supporting Thorbjorn Risager & The Black Tornado recently at London's 100 Club.

It's a big night for gigs tonight in London, what with Steven Wilson (Video Of The Day) playing the first of his three nights at The Royal Albert Hall and our mate Geoff Carne & The Hatz (pictured) playing Camden's equally iconic Dublin Castle. Wilson's huge global tour marks the release of his expansive fifth solo album 'To The Bone' (don't expect a SW Video Of The Day tomorrow - it's too dangerous), but do try and get along and see Geoff at 7.30pm in support of the recent release of their '4 Play' EP.
