Shades of Plato

Post by RetroRocket »

A few folks on here have kindly taken the time to check out my band, Shades of Plato.

Here's the lead track from our next album 'Blackout', due for release later this year.

'Menaced Assassins' is probably our most Stranglers like track i hope you enjoy!

Thanks for taking the time to check it out, and for the feedback, appreciated!

Yes, our guitarist Jack Sorrow is a quite exceptional musician !

Thanks for listening to it with a 👍 up!

Too late... we are already using it as a strap line...

Hi. Thanks for your support!

We have just finished recording our next album..'Blackout '. It should be mixed and mastered for an autumn release, which we plan to support with gigs...watch this space!

In the meantime we are soon releasing our next single and video....'she comes in colours', which won't be on the new album. I'll let folk know when it's dropped.

Love and respect, RR x

As promised, here's our new single, 'She Still Comes In Colours', which won't be on the new album.

Probably our poppiest track to date. Play loud and dance!

Love and respect, RR

Excellent song - good video as well - but no sign of your drummer on the vid?
