_{Ted Poley is of course best known as the frontman for Danger Danger, but just after re-joining the band in 2004 he released a couple of solo albums. Almost a decade later he has just released his third solo album. Entitled “Beyond The Fade”, it was released by Frontiers Music on 13th May. Poley has worked with multi-talented and rather industrious producer / songwriter / musician Alessandro Del Vecchio and song-writing brothers Tom and James Martin from Vega to deliver a very strong album that should appeal to many people. I played the track “Higher” on the NI Rocks A-Z Show on 3rd May.}

_{I had posted a recommendation for SunStrike’s debut album “Rock Your World” back in April 2014, so was looking forward to hearing their new album “Ready II Strike” when it arrived via GerMusica. The album was released on 20th May on the AOR Heaven label and I’ve already played a couple of tracks on Rock Radio NI – “A Piece of the Action” on the NI Rocks A-Z Show on 3rd May and “Angel In My Room” on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 20th May.}
