Originally slated for a release on 25th February, Finnish sleaze and glam rock act Reckless Love has had to postpone their new album Turborider for another month.
“February has been a busy month for Reckless Love and it seems like our comeback has taken off like a rocket. The only things still holding us from soaring above the clouds to a full glide, are the unfortunate effects corona has had on the business,” said vocalist Olli Herman.
“First, we were forced to postpone our UK/European tour until September – And now, we face the decision to postpone the release of our record by a month. This is all due to the difficulties the record distributers have with shipments worldwide. We did not want the people who have already ordered our record, to have to wait for a month while the album would be out already online and in some parts of the world. We wanted fair-play and the decision was made together with our record company.“
The album will now be available as CD, LP, special box set (including a videogame!) and digital formats on 25th March 25, through AFM Records.
However, to shorten the wait for the postponed album release, Reckless Love has announced an exclusive, worldwide radio gig hosted by Radio Rock in Finland. The band will be playing a bunch of the new album tracks live on February 24, 2022 – airing at 7pm CET only here.
“We were determined not to let this minor setback hold us down at all, so we came up with the idea of playing an exclusive worldwide radio show on Radio Rock Finland where we’re gonna play some of the new songs to offer our listeners a sneak peek on the new material before the actual album is even released. We are extremely confident, that the new material will take us further than ever before,” continued Herman.
“Furthermore, we are already planning for the spring of 2023 and we are beyond excited, stoked, to tell you that Reckless Love will be a part of the line-up on the legendary Monsters of Rock Cruise in Caribbean, in May 2023. Stay tuned for more!! We are going to make sure that you’ll hear more from us sooner than later.”
Rescheduled dates for Reckless Love’s co-headlining tour with Dan Reed Network, and special guest Collateral have already been inked in for August and September.
