Tour Update

We are very sorry to announce that the gig scheduled to be held on 24th November at The Underground, Barnstaple, UK
has been cancelled.

House Of Lords are currently in Europe on the 2009 leg of their 'Bangin' World Tour'.
James along with BJ Zampa, Chris McCarvill and Rob Marcello (standing in for Jimi Bell for the tour) play a host of
European dates before returning to the US to play at the Mohegan Sun Casino on December 7th.
The band are supported by rising stars Kane'd for the majority of the European dates.
 
so that's two great reasons to take in one of the shows in a city near you!
see dates below

House Of Lords 2009 Tour
Here are the rescheduled dates for the forthcoming House of Lords Tour.
The tour was originally scheduled to start in September but due to unforseen circumstances and a clash with 
festival dates the Tour has been pushed back very slightly to start in October.
We apologise for any confusion this may have caused.

May we remind people that although we try to be as accurate as possible when posting these dates, it is always
wise to double check with the venue for confirmation before planning journeys etc.

House Of Lords
**New Album**

Frontiers Records proudly announces the release of the brand new House Of Lords album entitled Cartesian Dreams on September 18 in Europe and October 13 in the USA.

Following the 2008's release of "Come to My Kingdom", a record equally hailed by critics and fans as one of the highlights of the season, House Of Lords carved another masterpiece that sets in stone the legacy of one of the most productive and impressive bands of the scene.

"This new CD was truly a labour of love" says singer James Christian. "I was so fortunate to be able to work once again with my writing partner and friend Mark Baker. The last time Mark and I worked together was to write and record "Demons Down". We have a great chemistry when it comes to writing songs. Jimi Bell once again gave us smoking tracks and Tommy Denander also put his contribution on a few great tracks".
The songs written for the new CD offer many different flavours. "The band as usual always strives to stay true to its sound but this time around we expanded our horizons a bit without compromising the trademark sound that so many people expect from us", continues James "We don't want to keep making the same record over and over, so this time around you will hear a few things you did not hear on the previous CD's".

House of Lords debuted in 1989 with the release of the self-titled album, a record which is still regarded as one of the best Arena Rock releases of the 80's. The colossal sound, the soaring vocals of James Christian and instrumental capabilities of the band (which featured ex Angel and Giuffria Gregg Giuffria, along with such luminaries as Lanny Cordola, Chuck Wright and Ken Mary), reminiscent of such frontrunners as Whitesnake, Deep Purple and Van Halen, immediately brought the band to the attention of the media and fans.

With their sophomore release entitled "Sahara", House of Lords gained considerable chart success with their cover version of Blind Faith's "Can't Find My Way Home". After a tour with Nelson in 1991, the group disbanded, eventually coming back with a new lineup (only featuring original members Giuffria and Christian) in 1992 with "Demon's Down". With the change of the musical climate, House of Lords went into hibernation, until the original lineup came back together in 2000, releasing of the controversial "Power and the Myth" an album which featured a sound leaning more towards Progressive Hard Rock with 70's rock influences.

After a short European tour, singer James Christian decided to go back to the trademark Arena Rock sound of House Of Lords, putting together a new line-up with the blessing of founding member Gregg Giuffria, who opted out right before the release of "Power and the Myth". New members Jimi Bell on guitars, B.J. Zampa on drums and Chris McCarvill on bass supplied a true powerhouse sound to the fifth studio album "World Upside Down", a record which caused a real stir in the Hard Rock and Melodic Rock scene and was followed up by the equally impressive "Come to My Kingdom".

"Cartesian Dreams" is a natural progression for a band that has such a long history and is just what you would expect and even more: superb hooks, majestic atmospheres that bring back the memories of the debut album, monumental guitar riffs and a production to die for. "The one common thread with the band is that we are always on the same page in terms of what want our records to sound like" concludes James. House Of Lords continues to grow with every record and everything in "Cartesian Dreams" shines from the first second to the last!

Moonstone Project - Shooting Star

 James appears in the promo video of the song "Shooting Star"
from the brand new Moonstone Project album "Rebel On The Run".

James Christian and Moonstone Project

James has added his vocal magic to the brand new Moonstone Project album Rebel On The Run.
James sings lead vocals on all but one of the 11 tracks. That remaining track features lead vocals by none other
than Glenn Hughes. Moonstone Project is the brainchild of Italian guitarist Matt Filippini
and this is their first album release on the Blistering Records label. A widely respected touring & studio guitarist of the highest order,
Matt has provided his exciting six string work for legends like Blue Oyster Cult, Glenn Hughes and Ian Paice
amongst many others. Moonstone Project, however, is his master creation. More than simply a nostalgia act,
this collective has created fiery original songs for the next generation, steeped authentically in the fine tradition of bluesy
British 70s rock ala Deep Purple, Rainbow, Uriah Heep, Zeppelin & Bad Company.
The album is available from June 2nd 2009 on Blistering Records.
