Adrian Smith and Richie Kotzen, need no introductions. Their 2021 self-titled debut was a powerful showcase of modern rock, blending 70s-inspired blues, rock, and R&B into a contemporary sound. I've been following them basically all my life. Iron Maiden are my favourite heavy metal band and I love what Kotzen did with Mr. Big, not to mention lots of other projects and solo albums.
Now, the duo returns with their latest project, Black Light / White Noise marking the continuation of their musical journey. The album was self-produced by Smith and Kotzen and mixed by renowned engineer Jay Ruston, recorded at The House in Los Angeles.
Here is the official video for Black Light, amazingly made, and you can follow the duo Smith/Kotzen on Spotify and social media as well. The song has the usual quality you expect from the duo, both are on vocals, riffs, solos (I love the one by Richie), and songwriting. You can also find the song on the playlists by Given To Rock.
