Formed by Whitesnake guitar player Doug Aldrich, L.A. Rock and roll band Burning Rain has been on the sidelines for a bit given various band members touring schedules. But, lucky for us, there is a new album in the works coming very soon.

Video of the Day: John Diva and the Rockets of Love – Blinded
John Diva, our favorite rocker, is back and ready to scorch the earth with his latest video.
Live Video of the Day: Nick Waterhouse – El Viv (Live From Here)
Nick Waterhouse is a throwback in all the best of ways. Here he pays a little tribute to Hal Blaine and his mentor, the owner of Rookie Ricardo’s records in San Francisco, Dick Vivian.
Video of the Day: Tamino – Persophone
Some sort of wicked hybrid of a cross between Jeff Buckley and Leonard Cohen with hints of Scott Walkers, all elements of a sublimely beautiful listen.
Video of the Day: Twinnie – Better When I’m Drunk
After becoming a staple behind the scenes as a singer and dancer and on stage with touring productions of Rock of Ages and Footloose, Twinnie appears as the main attraction on this single in advance of her upcoming record. This song walks that delicate line between a great night and a delicate day after.
Rock is the New Roll: Electric Radio Kings – Back To Black
Las Vegas based Electric Radio Kings are Paul Christiana on vocals with a Jim Morrison meets Scott Weiland vibe, Stacey Blades and Keith Horne on guitars, Johnny Rude on drums and Del Cheetah from Chris Angel’s band on bass guitar. Much in the Stone Temple Pilots/Cheap Trick mold Electric Radio has just enough frills to grab your attention, but stop just short of going over the top. With a recent endorsement from the one and only Alice Cooper we are ready for a full length L.P., boys! Here, they deliver a stunningly stellar version of the Amy Wine Winehouse song “Back to Black.”
Live Video of the Day: Old 97’s – Big Brown Eyes (Texas Music Scene)
A concert for this hard charging band.
Video of the Day: Murray A. Lightburn – To The Top
Murray A. Lightburn as the lead singer of the Montreal Chamber-Pop band The Dears has released what might be the Soul album of the year with his latest solo effort Hear Me Out. With his street corner vocal style and an expressive voice that at times brings to mind Bryan Wilson and at other times Scott Walker to complement his Curtis Mayfield vibe, a new star is forming before your very ears.
Video of the Day: Drugdealer – Fools
This new record is on the can’t wait until it comes out list. The first single, “Fool’s”, is some sort of wicked brew mix of Pablo Cruise, Steely Dan, and Firefall. Brilliant stuff, indeed.
Video of the Day: Damon Johnson – Shiver Shiver
Damon Johnson, co-founder with Ricky Warwick of the Thin Lizzy spin-off band Black Star Riders has a new record coming out on March 8th. It should be a good one if this single is any indication.
