Black Rose were formed back in the early 1980's in the North East of England.
We released quite a few records including various singles ,ep's and 2 albums - Boys Will Be Boys ( Bullet records 1984 ) and Walk It How You Talk It ( Neat records UK - AJK USA 1987 ).
After splitting up in 1989 two original members of the band Steve Bardsley ( that's me on Lead Vocals & Guitar ) and Chris Watson ( Lead Guitar ) decided to get back together and write some brand new material.
We were joined by Kiko Rivers ( Bass Guitar ) and then original band member Mal ' malla ' Smith ( Drums ) has now joined up with the rest of us and we're working in the studios recording material for a new album which should be released sometime in the near future.
Also we've just had a 15 track compilation cd featuring some of our 80's material , released on Majestic Rock records called ' Bright Lights Burnin' and it's available now from various internet music sites ( Amazon , CD universe , CD Now etc. )
For all info regarding Black Rose please visit the blackrose-rockband.co.uk website.
Ok guys at long last we have finally recorded some brand new songs and samples of 4 of them are now on here for you to listen to.
These are the first new tracks we've done for nearly 20 years and hopefully a CD album of all the new stuff we've done will be released in the near future.
