Thunder announce new live album and concert film ‘Stage’

Captured at Cardiff’s Motorpoint Arena on 24th March 2017 during the band’s rapturously received Rip It Up tour, ‘Stage’ will be released almost exactly a year later on 23rd March 2018 via earMUSIC on 2CD + Blu-ray, 3LP, DVD, Blu-ray and a Limited-Edition Box Set formats.

Tracks performed on the night included Thunder classics like ‘Backstreet Symphony’, ‘Low Life In High Places’ and ‘Love Walked In’ together with more contemporary tracks including ‘Rip It Up’ and ‘She Likes The Cocaine’.

Thunder singer and Planet Rock DJ extraordinaire, Danny Bowes, enthuses: “The Rip It Up album was so well received, it was no surprise the tour was brilliant too. 

“We decided to include a Cardiff Motorpoint Arena show on the tour, purely because it was so good when we played there with Journey & Whitesnake in 2013.

“Capturing it as well turned out to be one of our better decisions, because the resulting film and album are a shining example of an organic “coming together” of fans and a band.

“We’ve released a few live recordings over the years, but this is most definitely up there with the best of them. We're extremely pleased with it.”

Alongside the gig in its unadulterated entirety, the audio-visual formats will feature a host of bonus and interview material, while the limited-edition Box Set will include also boast the full ‘Live At The 100 Club’ set, the ‘29 Minutes Later’ acoustic set (only previously made available as a Record Store Day release), and the documentary film ‘A Difficult Day In January: Thunder In London’.
