0

 Famed for fronting huge 70’s hit band Smokie, Chris Norman has gone on to carve a successful solo career since leaving the band in 1986, when his first single ‘Midnight Lady’ became a massive hit throughout Europe including holding the German No.1 slot for 6 weeks!

Now, with over 20 solo albums to his name, he’s back with a brand new collection and sounding better than ever. It is an eclectic mix of new and original recordings that have that his unmistakable sound. The tracks are hallmarks of a true singer-songwriter with timeless melodies and memorable harmonies that soar. The first single ‘Sun Is Rising’ is a foot stomping feel good number that is perfect for the summer of 2017.

 Smokie had started as an album orientated rock act and their many live experiences had given Chris and Smokie a good grounding in all the tricks of the Rock ‘n’ Roll trade. Chris remembers: “We weren’t so much interested in pop singles at first. That’s why the back cover of our first LP ‘PASS IT AROUND’ was designed in a way that made us look kind of folk/rocky instead of a Glamrock band.”

Now Chris riding solo is gearing up to release some new music and his track “Sun Is Rising” will be released on the 17th of June 2018!
