Swiss quartet ROADFEVER have been rocking for while playing hundreds gigs and festivals supporting / sharing stages with the likes of Scorpions, Blackfoot, Pretty Maids, Little Caesar, etc, just to name a few. They have two studio albums with good melodic rock label Avenue of Allies, and two live DVD’s which testimony the band’s reputation as an energetic live act.
Now 2022 it’s time for their third studio effort “Invisible Enemy“, a powerful, groovy hard rock 10-tracker driven by sharp riffs and tons of melody. Half male / half female – on of them handles lead vocals – ROADFEVER’s music takes you back to the wood & steel rock ‘n roll, just musicians with their real instruments straight from the amp. “Invisible Enemy” is a pretty cool collection of classic hard rock tunes powered along by big guitars, punchy bass, groovy drumming and a powerful, clean female voice.
Having played in several bands since the 80’s, it was in 2004 that Stevie Manou Pike (lead vocals) and David Pariat (guitar, vocals) met up again. After sharing some musical ideas they decided to form their own band, “Devil’s Daughter”, which turned out to be “Roadfever” in 2005.
Since 2008 Roadfever have been giving energy-raising gigs, open-airs and festivals. Together, Manou and David composed the 11 titles of the album “Wheels on Fire” which was finalized in March 2009. Roadfever’s first dvd “Live in Geneva” came out in July 2010.
In May 2009, Roadfever signed an exlcusive distribution contract for Switzerland with Irascible Distribution (CH) and the album “Wheels on Fire” is available on websites throughout the world through the retailers AOR Heaven who are also in charge of their promotion.
Roadfever are adepts of Classic Hard Rock, and their rage sends us back to the vital electricity of bands like Gotthard, Krokus, Scorpions, Zakk Wylde, etc, with vocals influenced by singers like Stevie Nicks, Pat Benatar and Janis Joplin.
You can tell these are seasoned musicians, as they rock with authenticity. Manou has been greasing her voice since the 80’s with several bands including Sharper and State of Mind. David has been in the business for 3 decades with several bands, his most recent being renowned hard rockers Sideburn before forming Roadfever in 2005.
“Invisible Enemy” rocks, and rocks good.
