Riverdogs formed in California back in 1989 and 28 years later, they’ve just released their fifth album; coincidentally entitled “California”. The album was released through Frontiers Records on 7th July. Belfast born guitarist Vivian Campbell is no doubt the highest profile member of the band – he played on the self-titled debut in 1990 before going on to play in Shadow King and then of course Def Leppard. The single “Welcome to the New Disaster” featured on the NI Rocks A-Z Show uploaded on 26th June and “American Dream” will be included on the Friday NI Rocks Show this week.
“Lies, Hopes & Other Stories” is the second album from Italian band Starsick System and it was released on 23rd June 2017 through Pride & Joy Music. It is over two years since the release of the debut album “Daydreamin” - which also earned a NI Rocks recommendation. With this latest album the band continues to impress and it is well worth checking out. The track “I Am The Hurricane” was featured on the Friday NI Rocks Show that was uploaded on 28th June.

It seems Photobucket has gone into melt-down mode and wants to charge $399 per year for 3rd party photo hosting if you use the images you’ve uploaded on other websites – such as Rock Radio NI. That’ll NOT be happening. So if you’re reading an album recommendation or interview posted on our website prior to 30th June 2017 expect to see lots of Photobucket images telling you that the account needs updated. Apologies, but unless Photobucket realise the folly of this change of policy that’s the way it’s going to be.
