AIRTIME - FEATURING
RIK EMMETT &
MIKE SHOTTON SIGN TO ESCAPE MUSIC:
Escape Music Ltd. takes great pleasure in announcing the signing of the new rock band, Airtime, featuring the legendary multi-talented musicians
Rik Emmett (ex-Triumph / Solo artist) on lead vocals and all guitars and basses; and
Michael Shotton (Von Groove) on drums, percussion, noises, keyboards and background vocals.
The title of the album is Liberty Manifesto and is scheduled for release in the week of November 19. As you would expect from two such highly respected musicians, their music is vibrant and exciting Classic Rock in the same style of Led Zep, Rush, and of course some elements of Triumph and Von Groove... with vocal melodies and harmonies that are sometimes reminiscent of Journey or Queen - but Airtime definitely has its own original and unique character, with fantastic hook lines!!
