On the heels of their newest studio album, “Brothers In Arms“, SUNSTORM will release a special new recording, “Still Roaring [The Studio Session]”, via Frontiers Music, October 21, 2022. Recorded when they gathered to film music videos for the aforementioned new studio album, the band took advantage of the time together to record a live session in the studio.
“Still Roaring” sees the band performing 10 songs from the band’s two most recent releases as well as previous ones. While this is ‘live’, it’s into the studio, with all the advantages of a clean recording without disturbing noises.
