Euphoria Audio are the latest band to play an exclusive acoustic session in the ‘In Session’ series for Get Ready to ROCK! Their set goes out for the first time on Sunday 14 September at 21:00 and is repeated during the week.

In the past few years the band have worked closely with producers Stuart Epps (Oasis, Jimmy Page) and Steve Levine (Culture Club, The Beach Boys).

After an appearance at the annual industry event MuseXpo event, they returned to Los Angeles in late-2010 to work with record producer and songwriter Jeff Blue (Linkin Park, Korn) and record producer Brandon Friesen (Nickelback, Sum 41) on their 4 track EP, which includes the tracks “Speechless”, “House On Fire”, “By My Side” and “3 Seconds”. This has led directly to their self-titled debut album which is released in September 2014.

Get Ready to ROCK! wrote: “Euphoria Audio hail from Wakefield in Yorkshire although listening to their debut album you’d be mistaken for thinking they were a US band used to playing arenas…These boys know how to take classic melodic rock sounds (there is a whiff of Def Leppard in the guitars at times) and update them making it perfect for a younger rock crowd (and their parents as the music is very accessible).”

The band launch the new album in a special showcase gig at The Barfly, London, UK – on Friday 3 October.

Euphoria Audio consists of members Matt Shirty (lead vocals), Ben Lloyd (guitar/ vocals), Ben Hughes (bass) and Josh Hughes (drums/ vocals).

Get Ready to ROCK’s ‘In Session’ series is a developing outlet for specially selected artists who have provided acoustic or live sets, sometimes in contrast to their usual output. The show has featured Jethro Tull’s Martin Barre, Lisbee Stainton and prog-rockers Magenta amongst others.
