Nov 11Smokehead Rocks tour
Smokehead Rocks continues to offer great value in live music, but in response to fans recent feedback has revised the line-up for the November tour by tightening up the offering to include a traditionally two band strong bill. With longer sets from both Airrace & Vega fans really can enjoy some of the best of British rock music.
It took a 25th anniversary re-issue of ‘Shaft Of Light’ to reunite Airrace in 2009. ‘Back To The Start’, the along-awaited second album from Airrace. it’s a notch heavier than ‘Shaft Of Light’ yet continues to offer all of the group’s trademarks, including über-memorable hooks and the exquisite singing of Keith Murrell, recently named at #20 in Classic Rock Presents AOR magazine’s list of the Top 40 AOR Vocalists Of All Time. Airrace look forward to hitting the road in support of ‘Back To The Start’ – don’t miss the band that once moved journalist Derek Oliver to pronounce in the pages of Kerrang! that anyone who didn’t like Airrace “ought to be shot”. With ‘Back to the Start’ Airrace are “as strong & compelling as ever” -Dave Cockett, Classic Rock presents AOR
Vega feature former KICK vocalist Nick Workman and the successful song writing partnership of Tom and James Martin (House of Lords, Ted Poley of Danger Danger to name but a few) and have taken the melodic rock world by storm with their debut album, ‘Kiss of Life’. With a second album already in the bag the band are excited to add their own new angle to AOR. As Classic Rock says “Thank the lord for Vega: four youthful Brits whose soaring, adventurous sound is matched only by their swagger”
–Dave Ling.
