Bio
Black Rose were formed back in the early 1980's in the North East of England. They 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 ( Vocals & Guitar ) and Chris Watson ( Lead Guitar ) decided to get back together and write some brand new material. They were then joined by Kiko Rivers ( Bass Guitar ) and original member Mal ' malla ' Smith ( Drums ) and started working in the studios recording some material for a new album which should be released sometime in the near future. They have just had a 15 track compilation cd featuring some of their original 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. North East DJ Mark Gregory has released a book ( out on Oct 31st from lulu.com ) called ' No Sleep till Saltburn ' all about the North East of England rock music scene in the early 80's.Featuring bands like Black Rose,Satan,Battleaxe,Arizona and many more it's a fascinating insight into how the area created so many great nwobhm bands.The book also comes with a link to download a free brand new song from Black Rose. CURE FOR YOUR DISEASE is the title of the new album and it's available to download now from www.reverbnation.com/blackroseuk. It will also be available from online music stores like Amazon,iTunes etc from July 2010. In 2011 Black Rose played their first live gig in over 20 years at the Cradle will Rock fest in Co.
