Vega - "Let's Have Fun Tonight" Official Lyric Video
When is an AOR band not an AOR band? The answer is when it’s rising melodic rock hopefuls, Vega. The various members – Tom Martin, James Martin, Nick Workman, Marcus Thurston, Hutch and Mikey Kew - have a rich history; including stints with Kick, Sugartown and Wildkard, but it was their meeting of musical minds back in 2009 that gave the genre one of the finest releases of that year in the form of their debut album, “Kiss Of Life”. Its eclectic, off-kilter style of AOR made them stand out from the crowd. They were embraced by an audience that they seemed keen to distance themselves from. Even bassist Tom Martin was keen to play down their AOR credentials by stating in Classic Rock, “We don’t want to be an eighties throwback.” It’s not that they don’t like AOR, far from it; it’s just that they wanted to add new flavours, and it’s a manifesto that they live for to this very day. Having been ensconced in the studio and self-producing, the resulting album, “Only Human”, sees them releasing a collection of songs that focus on their core strengths; strong harmonies, big choruses and a compelling lyrical content. They are all pulling in the same direction, with the new drummer, Hutch, adding fresh impetus and style to songs that are set to become Vega standards. From the irresistible “All Over Now” through to the poignant “Mess You Made” and stopping off at the riff laden “Last Man Standing”, “Only Human” is set to raise the bar as far as this band are concerned. They’ve pulled out all the stops, disconnected the brakes and are hurtling skywards, smashing beyond the glass ceiling that holds back so many band.
