Reviews – Albums/Gigs 2023

The volume of new releases and Gig announcements have certainly been on the increase again this year. Having started a little late on attending live shows I’m trying to catch up now, but getting there. This year is looking very busy again both Album Release and Gig wise so lots to come.


Robin Trower & Sari Schorr – Live In Concert – Joyful Sky for RockposerDotCom

Great way to spread the word about Robin’s new album Joyful Sky, a live set with Sari and also featuring some of Robin’s best songs with Bassist Ricard Watt’s on vocals. The package also includes Interviews with both Robin and Sari. Covering almost the complete album, which is terrific, the live concert section still shows an amazing guitarist with such a pure tone, very little fuss and being able to concentrate on doing what he does best play guitar.


Samantha Fish & Jesse Dayton – Button Factory, Dublin – 17-10-2023 for Metal Planet Music

Touring their wonderful collaboration that is the Death Wish Blues album, this show is just classy variations of Blues from start to finish with two extremely talented players/vocalists and a top notch band behind them.

Ad Infinitum – Chapter III – Downfall

New album from Swiss Symphonic Metal outfit Ad Infinitum, very much worth the wait and spending some time with.


Kamelot – The Awakening for RockposerDotCom

Really enjoying the new Kamelot album, such a talented band. This new album has a great mix of music and as expected it’s a well written and put together piece of work.


The Answer – Sundowners for RockposerDotCom

Terrific return to action from the guys, go check out this album and see them live if you get the opportunity, I’m certain the new tracks are going to be killer in the live arena.
