The Stockholm, Sweden-based HOUSTON is back with a third album in their Relaunch series, the aptly titled ”Relaunch III” on July 14, 2023 via Frontrier Music. The basic concept behind the Relaunch albums is for Houston to shine a light on obscure, unknown AOR gems from their personal musical collections.
The first Relaunch album was released in 2011 and featured a cover of ‘Runaway’ by Dakota. The band collaborated on a video for the song with Danny MacAskill, a professional BMX rider, and his sponsor Red Bull and it became a huge success, with over 90 million views on YouTube and close to 2 million streams on Spotify, as of this writing. Much to AOR fans delight, and especially the guys in Houston, the success of the ‘Runaway’ cover got Dakota to reunite and record a brand new studio album
Houston, an AOR band themselves, are true AOR connoisseurs and want to pay their respects to these legendary artists and songs. And they did it again on ”Relaunch III” with class.
