Now we have here an absolute delight for AOR fans: UK based act FIRST LIGHT and their debut album ”Gravity”.
FIRST LIGHT was formed by two musicians with a long story in the British rock scene, guitarist / songwriter Dave Hardman and bass player Carl Sharples, joined by ex FM keyboardist Didge Digital who drops washes of retro synths, drummer Andy Jakeman, and American vocalist Warren Passaro which vocal color brings to mind Kevin Chalfant and Steve Perry.
