If you can't find what you're looking for - or wish to refine your search to include only references to the key search term - try putting inverted commas around the search term e.g. "Steve Lukather" or "Black Star Riders"
For example if you enter Black Star Riders the results will include all instances of "Black" "Star" and "Riders". The search will also be slower.

Gig review: FIREVOLT FESTIVAL – Whitebottom Farm, Stockport, 7-9 August 2026

Four years ago, as the live scene slowly returned to normal after the pandemic, my interest was piqued by a festival called Firestorm on the very outskirts of Greater Manchester, featuring several of my favourite bands. It seemed too good … Continue reading

Gig review: MAID OF STONE FESTIVAL- Mote Park, Maidstone, Kent, 17-19 July 2026

Now in its fourth year, Maid of Stone has in a short space of time established itself as one of the very best festivals, ranking alongside the longer running Steelhouse and Stonedead for mid-sized events catering for a classic rock … Continue reading

Gig review: THE NEW ROSES- Downstairs at the Dome, London, 27 September 2025

The New Roses have become a fixture on the UK circuit, this being their fourth autumn jaunt in a row, and yet the success they have had in Germany still eludes them here despite all that roadwork. I did wonder … Continue reading

Gig review: THE NEW ROSES- The Black Heart, Camden, London, 16 October 2024

On the very same day Thomas Tuchel was announced as the English football team’s new coach, some other Anglophiles from Germany were the musical attraction. The New Roses are on an extensive UK tour as they now seem to be … Continue reading

Gig review: THE NEW ROSES- Downstairs at the Dome, London, 26 November 2023

Despite rave reviews, German rockers The New Roses have yet to achieve the success they deserve in the UK. We can speculate about the reason for this- one being that though they defy pigeonholing, their sound is totally un-German! Hopefully … Continue reading

Gig review: THE NEW ROSES – Camden Underworld, London, 1 December 2022

It’s been a case of making up for lost time for German rockers The New Roses. I’d been highly impressed by their headline London show at this same venue in late 2018 and the following year’s ‘Nothing But Wild’ was … Continue reading

Gig review: THE NEW ROSES – Camden Underworld, London, 29 November 2018

The New Roses are making up for lost time to launch a concerted push on the UK. Big in their native Germany, for some reason it has taken three albums and an EP, culminating in last year’s ‘One More For … Continue reading

Album review: THE NEW ROSES – One More For The Road

Napalm Records [Release date 25.08.17] Third album by the New Roses, who have been touring relentlessly and sound like they are from the US, when in fact they hail from Germany. The band’s line up is Timmy Rough (vocals/guitar), Norman … Continue reading
