This Friday’s Guest DJ: UPON WINGS

Anne Erickson from Upon Wings

Upon Wings hail from Detroit, Michigan, and can be described as female-led Rock and Metal with a classical influence. The group’s latest EP, Last Love, was released September 23rd via Sword of the Spirit Records.

The rest Last Love EP brings together songs Upon Wings released over the past year and a half, as well as a 10th anniversary edition of the group’s debut single, “The Dream (I’m Only Happy When I’m Sleeping)” and the brand new title track.

Another highlight of the EP is “Eternal Way,” featuring guest vocals from Ralf Scheepers of Primal Fear and Gamma Ray and a fiery guitar solo from Max Georgiev of Falling in Reverse. Grammy Award-winning producer Glenn Brown mastered “Eternal Way” and “The Dream.” Finally, the pop-tinged “Scars” rounds out the set, offering a different vibe for Upon Wings. Jardine played guitars and produced the EP, and drummer Peter Tzaferis also contributed.

In this show Upon Wings present 10 of their most influential band/songs and we’ll of course play their new EP after the show.

    Stig is the founder and the president of Metal Express Radio, based out of Oslo, Norway. He has been around doing Metal radio since the mid-eighties. In fact, running Metal Express Radio takes almost all of his time. Is it worth it...? "Most times, yes," Stig says. "My philosophy is to try to give all Metal releases a fair chance to get promoted in one way or another. As you can imagine, it can be an arduous task to listen through about 20 albums every week! Still, I know we have the best METAL dedicated radio on this planet, and that is a reward in and of itself. I hope one day the whole Metal community can and will make listening to Metal Express Radio part of their daily rituals! Yeah, right..."
