Sari Schorr – Cool Hand Rider
Sari Schorr says Cool Hand Rider began with her love of horses and the freedom she feels when riding, before it grew into a song about desire and a woman who isn’t afraid to go after what she wants.
It’s taken from her new album Running Wild, out now in Europe via Provogue Records, with the US release following on 30 October.

Sons of Silver – Fever Run
The third single from LA rockers Sons of Silver’s forthcoming second album, built on muscular guitars and a widescreen chorus made to be played loud.
Singer Peter Argyropoulos calls it the band’s most ambitious rocker to date, and its breakdown owes a nod to Billy Idol’s Rebel Yell.

The Canadian band are also inviting fans and artists to record their own duet version, and head out on a UK tour with SOiL from 30 October.

It lands just weeks before the band’s biggest UK and European arena tour to date, which opens in November.

Skindred – Big Em Up
Taken from Skindred’s Number 1 album You Got This, Big Em Up carries a simple message: check on your friends, and pick them up when they’re feeling low.
The video arrived just ahead of World Mental Health Day, and the band’s You Got This Tour kicks off at Nottingham’s Rock City on 23 October.

Tyketto – The Picture
A song that very nearly never happened. Danny Vaughn found The Picture by chance on an old demo while preparing to write Closer To The Sun, and calls it the natural successor to Standing Alone.
A piano version closes Closer To The Sun (Deluxe), out on 27 November via Silver Lining Music.
