Night Ranger are busy in the studio working on a follow-up to 2007's Hole In The Sun. The style was described to me by frontman Jack Blades as "more classic sounding", which I am sure will please all fans of the band - new or old. The band line-up is the same one that has been touring together since 2008 - Jack Blades, Kelly Keagy, Brad Gillis, Joel Hoekstra and Christian Cullen. It is their first time in the studio together.
A picture of Brad Gillis was tweeted earlier today by Kelly - "laying down guitars on the new Night Ranger cd" (see below). A release is expected mid-year.
In related news the band has announced further tour dates. There are many more to be added and a big announcement about US plans coming.
