Captain Black Beard kündigen neue Radiosingle an
Swedish AOR/melodic hard rock pursuers Captain Black Beard are about to announce a new album and, today, they start to unveil it.
CAPTAIN BLACK BEARD "When It's Over" digital single (out 17th January 2025)
A song that has all the ingredients that Captain Black Beard are known for: a memorable chorus, 80s saxophone vibe, a cool breakdown, a great guitar solo, and lots of keyboards.
For fans of H.E.A.T., The Night Flight Orchestra, Journey
The time is now. CAPTAIN BLACK BEARD is back, fully ready for a new album release, with a renewed lineup and a newfound energy in their disco-AOR. The digital single (and video) that tease the upcoming record is titled “When It’s Over” - and is the perfect way to show people that the Captain is back!
“We chose this one as the first single because it has everything”, the band comments about the song. “A memorable chorus, 80s saxophone vibe, a cool breakdown, great guitar solo, and lots of keyboards. Oh, and if the vocals aren't impressive enough, Fredrik is also playing the saxophone on this one”, they say.
Like their Swedish countrymen The Night Flight Orchestra, Captain Black Beard grew up with the classic sound of bands such as Journey and Foreigner but found a way to take a renewed approach to it and own the AOR sound in such a bossy way that it draws the attention of a whole new generation of fans.
The development of the band sound over the last years and several albums and singles made the tag “disco AOR” stick to them, as a way to describe the incredible catchy and all-round composition and sound they achieved.
The ultimate expression of this “disco AOR” sound was, until now, the last Captain Black Beard album, “Neon Sunrise”, released in the Fall of 2022 via Mighty Music. Groovy drums, melodic guitars, lots of keyboards and melodic vocals to top it off and make your love for AOR – old or new – boil once again in your blood.
But now, with a revamped lineup, with includes new vocalist Fredrik Vahldren, the four-piece are ready to go even further… Are you ready for a joyride of melodic rock with a special Swedish touch?
Lineup:
Robert Majd - bass
Fredrik Vahlgren - vocals
Daniel Krakowski - guitar
Vinnie Strömberg - drums
