About

Romeo's Daughter are excited to announce their Slipstream Tour of the UK.

Not everyone starts their career with a debut album – released in 1988 – produced in collaboration with music industry heavyweights: ‘Mutt’ Lange and John Parr. Indeed, it was only a matter of time beforeRomeo’s Daughterhit the headlines! Hot on the heels of its success, their whirlwind tour of the US saw their single,‘Don’t Break My Heart’shoot up the US Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart.

Their dynamic and distinctive sound, described as brimming with “poise, pathos, memorable melodic hooks and inventive arrangements” has been consistently, and uniquely delivered over the years by: Leigh Matty (vocalist), Craig Joiner (guitarist, songwriter and producer) and Andy Wells (drums). With this line-up,Romeo’s Daughter has a pedigree, second to none; with each member having worked with the likes of: Whitney Houston, Tom Jones, Meatloaf, Jane Wiedlin, Bonnie Tyler, Roxette and John Parr. They are delighted to be joined by Steve Drennan on Bass for their Slipstream tour in 2023.

Over the years, their infectious music: brimming with power, passion and sophistication – and fronted by Leigh Matty: recently voted in the top 5 ‘Lady Rock Singers of all time’ – has attracted the highest calibre of established artists; with Heart covering their single:‘Wild Child’on their 3 million sell-out album, ‘Brigade’ – achieving No. 2 on the Billboard Rock All Play chart; as well as Eddie Money, Bonnie Tyler, and the recently reformed Steps!‘Heaven in the Backseat’– also from their debut album – also featured as the opening track of the 1990 film: ‘Nightmare on Elm Street 5’.

30 years down the line,Romeo’s Daughter are about to embark on their Slipstream Tour! With a fan base that never quit – even during their 16 year break, from 1993-2009 – they returned to worldwide praise with the release of their album:‘Rapture’in 2012 receiving an appropriately rapturous reception! As one of Britain’s finest rock bands,Romeo’s Daughterconsistently perform to sell-out audiences and are one of the few bands of their generation who have come back better than the first time.

White Skies were formed by ex-Samson/First Strike vocalist Mick White, ex Ya Ya guitarist Ray Callcut and ex Double Cross/Dante Fox keyboard player Pete Lakin. Their debut album Black Tide was written and recorded throughout the world pandemic and is an album that encompasses a broad spectrum of the melodic rock genre over the twelve tracks.
After completing the album in the spring of 2022 the band were very quickly offered a deal by German rock label 'Pride and Joy Music.’ Adding drummer Daz Lamberton
ex Red White & Blues and bass player Rob Naylor ex Blood Red Saints the band released three singles/videos ahead of the album which was released on the 4th November 2022.
The album has received rave reviews from the rock press across the UK and Europe including Classic Rock Magazine, Fireworks Magazine, Powerplay Magazine, AOR Heaven and Crossfire Metal to name a few. The singles have also received extensive airplay throughout the world and the band is now ready to take the next step into the live arena.
