Wow, that week has been intense. I had to cut down my travel coverage and album reviews to somehow close the 2026 C2C Berlin coverage with my personal thoughts on Thursday. This weekend, I am heading to Canada for some ice hockey. Exciting – even though the Pittsburgh Penguins won’t be in my schedule this time. My list of new song releases has some really nice rock gems this week – but also features other genre. Enjoy!
Dee Dammers – Satan
Fabian Dee Dammers is a German rock guitarist. I recently featured him as the guitarist for Dirkschneider in Frankfurt in May 2025. After the tour, he is caring about his solo releases. The album Beyond The Shadows will be available on 15th May 2026. Satan is the first musical appetizer – and it is a lovely piece of instrumental hard rock!
Francis of Delirium – It’s a Beautiful Life
It’s a Beautiful Life is a single release of the upcoming album Run, Run pure Baby. Francis of Delirium is releasing it on 29th May 2026. The indie-rock project is from Luxembourg, driven by Jan Bahrich – a very promising release in my point of view.
Jack Savoretti – I Hear You Calling
Born in London, Jack Savoretti is pop and rock singer-songwriter. His album We Will Always Be The Way We Were, which is released in April 2026.
Lusaint – Love Bites Back
Ain’t there a touch of Amy Winehouse in the new single by Lusaint? The British artist is just about to have a couple of headline shows in Germany. This groovy track could turn out to one of the highlights there.
Dis Dance – Something In Me
Something In Me is a synth-pop / new wave song released this Friday. The song reminds of the sound of Camouflage. The artist, Dis Dance is a project from Vienna, Austria.
Sienna Spiro – The Visitor
Sienna Spiro is a 20 year old British singer-songwriter. Her recent tour has been sold out, driven by her breakthrough single Die On This Hill. I really like her new one, The Visitor.
Svea & Stella – Tonight
Tonight by Svea & Stella is a straight Europop / Eurodance song. Unfortunately, the information about the two female singers are limited. Bad luck, this song definitely made me smile.
Melanie C – Undefeated Champion
Sporty Spice is back! Melanie C did not only release the song Undefeated Champion, she also announced her 2026 World Tour dates. Ticket sale starts next Friday – until that, you can enjoy the pop song by the British artist.
Arkells feat. Grouplove – Ride
The last track on my list this time is a pop-rock song from Canada. The Arkells join forces with the US-American indie band Grouplove. A really nice song.
