DAVID FORBES (Boulevard) – Tales From The Past (2023) *HQ*

DAVID FORBES, lead singer of Canadian band Boulevard (originally abbreviated Blvd) is about to release a solo album “Tales From The Past“, a wonderful AOR album which makes justice to its title both in sound & style.
Boulevard released their last album “Luminescence” a few years ago, a celebrated record by fans and critics, but since then the group went on hiatus. In 2022 David was in the position and state of mind to make a solo CD, and a talk with Steve Price and Paul Rudland led to David working with the small but professional and dedicated team at AOR Blvd Records who specialize in making music, building from the ground up.
The project includes Steve Newman writing, producing, playing, and arranging carefully crafted songs and co-writes from David & Pete Alpenborg, including a resurrected demo from Jeff Paris and Adrian Gurvitz.
This combination leads the music on a path that takes in a whole new level of listening pleasure; class AOR / Melodic rock of the highest order.
