Estrella-"Here I Am" Single

SJS Entertainment Limited
2014

Classic rock fans take note. Scottish rock/hard rock band Estrella (a melodic, 70/80s-inspired four piece which we previously touted here: http://metalmark.blogspot.com/2014/08/estrella-whatever-it-is-single.html ) have unveiled the first single from their highly-anticipated second album and man alive, is it ever a doozy!! Due for release on November 24th, "Here I Am" was co-written and co-produced by John T Sinclair (Uriah Heep, The Cult, Ozzy Osbourne band, etc.) at the Rockfield Studios (the very same studios where Queen recorded the killer classic "Bohemian Rhapsody"!) and if this uplifting rocker is indicative of what's in store for Estrella's second album then we just might be looking at one of 2014's strongest classic rock releases! You can be sure that everyone here at Heavy Metal Time Machine will be keeping an eye out for that LP, but in the meantime you can head to the link below to keep up with the comings and goings of this exceptional rock band!

Estrella-Whatever It Is (Single)

SJS Entertainment Limited
2014

"Whatever It Is" is a new single from Scottish four piece Estrella. Taking it's cue from classic 70s/80s rock influences such as Aerosmith, Def Leppard, Van Halen, AC/DC and Bon Jovi, Estrella is made up of  brothers Paul Gunn (lead vocals), Luke Gunn (lead guitar) and Nathan Gunn (bass) plus drummer Leo McPherson. Already a live hit thanks to plenty of buzz-worthy shows and a European tour with Robin Beck, Estrella, which is based in Aberdeen and will be touring Europe once more come November when they hit the road with ex-Guns N Roses guitarist Gilby Clarke, will be releasing a new album in 2015. This particular single (due to released Oct. 13th) comes from the band's 2012 debut album, "Come Out In Play", which can be ordered from: http://estrellarocks.com/store. A perfect reflection of the group's influences, "Whatever It Is" is repeat worthy as it has a remarkably comfortable and familiar vibe about it. All out once it reminds you of your favorite classic rock and hard rock bands while maintaining it's own air of authenticity meaning it meets you have way between nostalgia and originality. If  "Whatever It Is" is just one tiny slice of the excellence that awaits listeners on "Come Out To Play" (an album which I hope to secure for review purposes in the very near future) then there is a good chance that Estrella's debut outing is nothing short of a rock and roll gem!
