THE WINERY DOGS RELEASE NEW ALBUM 'UNLEASHED IN JAPAN' ON MAY 23RD 2014!
SAGA 'Let It Slide' from the new album Sagacity (OUT JUNE 27th 2014)
SAGA to release their brand new studio album "Sagacity" on June 27th, 2014 on earMUSIC
Limited European Tour Mini Album to be made exclusively available on tour and via selected retailers.
With SAGA's new album "Sagacity", the Canadian progressive rockers manage to keep their characteristic sound alive while adding a modern touch to their music.
Or as Michael Sadler puts it:
"For me this album marks a return to many of the signature elements that put Saga on the map at the onset of the band's career, while maintaining a firm grip on the here and now. The balance between past, present and future is the key and I think that's what we've managed to achieve. Quite simply, this is SAGA...2014!"
He certainly got it right. "Sagacity" does neither lack the striking guitar riffs which go hand in hand with the extensive keyboard arrangement nor Michael Sadler's characteristic voice. SAGA welcomes you with an enjoyable familiarity and an album full of 12 progressive rock anthems.
The album will be released as Standard Edition, Special Edition incl. bonus live CD, Vinyl and Download on June 6th, 2014 on earMUSIC.
Sagacity -- the English expression which stands for wisdom and cleverness -- pun intended -- has always been a huge part of the band's philosophy. SAGA has gotten wiser over the years which shows in their thoughtful, multileveled lyrics. They have gotten smarter with their music arrangements, always leaving the listener amazed with their creativity and inventiveness. Their richness of ideas reflects on the typical but always newly sounding keyboard sounds as well as in its striking melodies. On top of it, it's Michael Sadler's distinctive voice which molds the sound of SAGA, and he does so in an extremely good way.
"Sagacity" has it all -- and more.
The special edition includes a bonus CD, "Saga Hits", including nine live recordings from an energetic performance at the SWR1 Rockarena festival in 2013. Ranging from one classic like "The Cross" to "On The Loose", the bonus CD surely captures the incredible live athmosphere of that night.
Coinciding with the album release, SAGA will tour all over Europe on a double headliner tour with Magnum.
Exclusively for this tour, the band decided to give their fans a sneak peek of their new music. To be made available in the limited quantity of 1.000 only on tour and via a few selected retailers, the European tour mini album will feature one new song taken from the upcoming album "Sagacity", the strikingly taking "Anywhere You Wanna Go" from their recent success "20/20" as well as three live versions: "Careful Where You Step", the Japanese bonus track of "20/20" and for the first time available in Europe, "Wind Him Up" which is included on the bonus CD "Saga Hits" and "On The Loose" from their 2013 live release "Spin It Again -- Live In Munich". What a treat!
There is just one thing left to say: welcome to SAGA 2014!

Beauvoir Free presentation
Frontiers Records is pleased to announce the signing of BEAUVOIR / FREE for the release of a brand new album during 2015.
BEAUVOIR / FREE sees a new cooperation between famed singer, songwriter and producer Jean Beauvoir (ex-Plasmatics, Voodoo X and collaborator of KISS, Ramones and Little Steven among others) and guitarist Micki Free (ex-Shalamar). The pair was responsible for penning the milestone debut "CROWN OF THORNS" album which was originally signed by Interscope Records and later released independently throughout Europe and Asia in 1994.
With a tour supporting Bon Jovi and Van Halen for three months throughout all of Europe, playing to over a million people and with raving audience response. Crown of Thorns soon become one of the
biggest Hard Rock bands to emerge in the second half of the 90's.
Free however had already left the band by the time in which Crown of Thorns second album was released and was replaced by Tommy Lafferty. Free and Beauvoir are now reuniting with a promise to release their most exciting collaboration ever. Beauvoir says "I truly look forward to this reunion and collaborating with Micki once again! Stay tuned cause It will rock!!!". The pair played Hard Rock Calling UK and 2 shows in Scandinavia during april, look forward to more shows in the coming months. Frontiers plans to release the album in early 2015.
Unisonic 'For The Kingdom' & 'You Come Undone' Snippets
Two years after their celebrated eponymous debut album German hard rock supergroup UNISONIC which includes Michael Kiske, Kai Hansen, Dennis Ward, Mandy Meyer and last but not least Kosta Zafiriou is back with a new record that will be released on July 25th.
As a foretaste of their eagerly awaited sophomore album the band will release the EP 'For The Kingdom', which contains two new songs and four live tracks, on May 23rd.
Rock and metal fans had to wait many many years -- 23 to be exact -- before it finally happened: German metal icons Kai Hansen and Michael Kiske, who kicked off German Metal trailblazers Helloween's international triumph with the two 'Keeper Of The Seven Keys' records at the end of the 80s, got back together again. Again? Yes, again: Hansen quit Helloween in 1989 to found Gamma Ray while Kiske left four years later to attend to his solo projects. Even though the band already formed a year before Kai joined them but it was his involvement that made UNISONIC a so-called supergoup.
The two congenial musicians' new baby was called UNISONIC and instantly aroused enthusiasm in the rock and metal community. Their first single 'Unisonic' got well over 150.000 YouTube clicks in just a few days after its release in January 2012 and has by now garnered more than 640.000. When music legends like Kiske on mic and Hansen on guitar, who are completed by bassist Dennis Ward (Pink Cream 69), guitarrist Mandy Meyer (Krokus, ex Asia & Gotthard) and drummer Kosta Zafiriou (ex Pink Cream 69), pool their creative strengths, the world is going to be set on fire for sure.
And UNISONIC did deliver the goods: After their teaser mini album 'Ignition' got rave reviews and sold out immediately, the eponymous full-length debut was equally acclaimed and proved impressively that the chemistry between Hansen and Kiske is simply second to none. However, all those who expected a third 'Keeper Of The Seven Keys' album were mistaken: Instead of relying on worn out success patterns the two thoroughbred musicians rather indulged in heavy rock than in power metal and delivered a stylistically manifold album which featured everything from emotional ballad to luscious rock track while occasionally still drawing on buzzing heavy metal of course. The outcome was a unique collection of rock anthems full of energy, melody and magic.
And there's more to come. Only two years later Hansen, Kiske and co. up the ante again with their sophomore album which is once more produced by Dennis Ward an will be released on July 25th. Heralding this eagerly awaited full-length album, UNISONIC will again offer a foretaste in form of an EP called 'For The Kingdom' which will see the light of day on May 23rd. The six song collection consists of the brand new album track 'For The Kingdom', which hymn-like chorus and it's double-bass footwork extraordinaire will rush the blood to the head of all metal fans. Followed by the EP exclusive smasher 'You Come Undone' which could have been included on the first band offering as well but also gives a hint of what to expect from the near-by future plus four live recordings from their show at the Masters Of Rock Festival 2012 in the Czech Republic where UNISONIC performed a celebrated show (also exclusive to this EP).
The mini album will come as CD, strictly limited 12 inch vinyl EP and digital download on platforms like Amazon, iTunes etc. where it should be ready for preorder starting April 11th.

THE WINERY DOGS RELEASE NEW ALBUM 'UNLEASHED IN JAPAN' ON MAY 23RD 2014!
"Unleashed In Japan" isn't just a simple re-release -- it is way more than that!
Firstly, "Unleashed In Japan" presents a new live album from The Winery Dogs, and the eponymous studio album comes as a bonus so to say. Secondly, the aforementioned live album is also available as a vinyl version. And last but not least there is also a box set named "Dog Treats" containing various rarities from The Winery Dogs on top of the live and the studio album.
It would almost be too easy to call The Winery Dogs just a "supergroup": Singer and guitarist Richie Kotzen made history with Poison and Mr. Big, bassist Billy Sheehan played together with Steve Vai, David Lee Roth, Mr. Big, Talas, UFO and many others and drummer Mike Portnoy is among other things co-founder of the prog metal icons Dream Theater. But The Winery Dogs are so much more than just a supergroup.
"We all have our own intonation and our own style but we also have a lot in common when it comes to our musical roots and the music we grew up with," singer and guitarist Richie Kotzen explains. "What makes this band so special is that we have all preserved our own identity during our collaboration. We all sound the way we are but still make music which sounds as fresh and exciting as if we were a new band. The chemistry is just right, we were virtually meant for each other."
"I like the fact that we all have our different backgrounds, even though some of it is akin," Sheehan adds. "We have a special connection which surely wouldn't have come about if we all liked the same things. We put different elements together and made a consistent band out of them."
In July The Winery Dogs will tour Germany for a second time after their recent fall tour to present their songs live.
The tour dates:
10. July Nürnberg, Rockfabrik
11. July Bochum, Matrix
12. July Osnabrück, Rosenhof
