Canadian rockers Lions in the Street release their new single “Moving Along” on Friday 16 August 2024. The single is available on all streaming platforms LISTEN HERE. Watch the music video HERE.
“Moving Along” is taken from the band’s upcoming album Moving Along released Friday 8 November 2024.
Comprising the Brothers Kinnon (Chris on vocals and guitar; Jeff on drums), riff-master Sean Casey (guitar), and classically educated bass player Enzo Figliuzzi, the Canadian/California-based band has played with everybody from garage legends like the Dirtbombs to arena stars Kings of Leon, making SXSW best-of lists numerous times, and in between hanging out with the Rolling Stones’ legendary manager Andrew Loog Oldham. But putting integrity first had a cost: obscurity.
Lions in the Street began their career by signing and then walking away from the troubled TVT Records (NIN, Pitbull, Little Jon), Nickelback’s 604 Records (Carly Rae Jepson), and legendary manager Allen Kovac (Motley Crue, The Cars, Blondie, The Bee Gees), earning them a spot on the music industry’s blacklist. Years in the wilderness resulted—working as a garbageman for almost a decade, surviving cancer, serious workplace injuries, and almost deadly car accidents, and going back to school.
Yet, despite experiencing the best and worst of the of old music business—from hanging out with Todd Rundgren, Bob Ezrin, and R.E.M.’s Peter Buck, to seeing an A&R guy almost fired just for going to see them play—the band somehow kept going, releasing music piecemeal.
For example, Lions in the Street released an EP in 2013 on British legend Sandy Roberton's label. Roberton ran Blue Horizon, the English label that launched the 60s British Blues rock movement with John Mayall, Fleetwood Mac, and Rory Gallagher.
“Life is short and then you die / Beware the bearer of this lie …”
For their 7th release, mysterious alt-rock combo Limbonauts dial down the tempo for a sensuous ballad of romantic longing, shadowy connections and secret passion. Recorded live in a zero-gravity nightclub on the dark side of the moon. Or perhaps a studio in an underground bunker in London. Who can really tell?
The Limbonauts are a trio of musicians of dubious provenance dedicated to making lyrically complex art rock of the highest standard. They have come out of nowhere to build a loyal and growing fanbase in under six months.
Following the album announcement of NIGHTWISH's tenth studio album Yesterwynde, due 20th September via Nuclear Blast, the Finnish symphonic metal legends share their second single from the record with their fans. 'The Day Of...' is another breathtaking output from the band, showcasing a wide range of the band's vast skillset.
Tuomas Holopainen states about 'The Day Of...':
"'The Day Of...' delivers a message of hope and deliverance from the deluge of fear and misery we are subjected to on a daily basis. And even though it's a long road to a dreamworld, there are no monsters under the bed; as the children in the song joyously remind us."
