Escape Music are delighted to announce the signing of long established British rock band Lost Weekend. The band have been working with top Swedish Producer Martin Kronlund (Alliance, Gypsy Rose, Heartland, Hammerfall).
Dave Thompson and Paul Uttley of Lost Weekend have excelled themselves this time around and written a fantastic album title Fear and Innocence which consists of 11 wonderfully crafted songs in the vein of UFO, Thin Lizzy and Scorpions. Vocalist Paul Uttley states "We stripped back the sound from being very Keyboard AOR influenced and went back to our roots, the end result is a powerful mix of rock riffs vocals with Great melodies and Production to die for."
Lost Weekend are: Paul Uttley - Lead Vocals; David Thompson - Guitars; Paul Surrell - Guitars; Robin Pattchet - Bass guitar; Jack Himsworth - Drums; Gary (tinny) Ives - Additional Keyboards.
Produced and Mixed by: Martin Kronlund at JM Recording Studio's, Gothenborg, Sweden. Release date: November 17.
Track Listening: 1- The Eagle 2- Life With The Lid Off 3- A Little Older With Style 4- Face Of An Angel 5- Father And Son 6- Backstreet Livin 7- Another Lonely Night In Tears 8- Hearts N Minds 9- Find My Own Way 10- Only The Strong Survive 11- Stone Hearted Woman.
And here is an exclusive full song download - Another Lonely Night In Tears for melodicrock.com readers.
Lost Weekend have been together for 15 years. They are made up of musicians who over the last 25 years have rocked the stages of Britain, Europe and the world. With the resurgence in guitar based music the band have been in huge demand, indeed they have performed along side the likes of Gotthard, TNT, Dokken, Magnum, Saxon, Wishbone Ash, Jeff Scott Soto and Winger etc, in fact the list reads like a who's who of rock.
It was around the release of their third opus "New Religion" that legendary Magnum vocalist Bob Catley invited the band to support him on his solo tour of Britain and Europe for which the band again impressed from the start, this result in the band being asked to write Bob Catley's next solo album Spirit Of Man.
The album as received worldwide critical acclaim, and once again the band was invited on a tour with Catley.
November 2006 has seen the release of the bands fourth album the acclaimed forever Moving On, 2007 as been a year spent promoting the latest album with appearances at some of England's premier rock festivals to great effect.
With a slight change in personnel the band are now a twin guitar based band resulting in a heavier sound more akin to the likes of the Scorpions, UFO and Thunder to name a few, If you have not seen this band live with there current line-up you have not seen this band at all, . With four albums on sale around the world and band on the eve of the best release to date with their new album on Escape titled "Fear and Innocence" the band goes from strength to strength.
