ROCK AT NIGHT SAYS: Listening to Don Airey’s single “Tell Me” got us excited about hard rock in today’s world. Very 70s classic rock sound and hard-driving beat, which we love! With a great team behind him, it’s no wonder it’s a winner. Great soaring vocals by Mitchel Emms and Airey’s killer organ solo make this song a cut above the rest. We hope this band tours!

I grew up in a household full of rock music, studied journalism in college, and then became a scientist.Although my science career has served me well, music has always played a major role in my life. I grew up reading "Creem" magazine; I play several musical instruments as a "hobby";and it seems a camera has always been in my hand. Now, I am combining what I love the most--music and photography--serving as editor of Rock At Night. I travel between the US and UK seeking my dream! My motto: life is short...no regrets. Chyrisse
