KillerStar
THE AFTERGLOW
After earning 4-star reviews from MOJO, The Times and RnR along with glowing comparisons to David Bowie, Suede and prime ‘70s art rock for their self-titled debut, KillerStar return with the release of their electrifying second album ‘The Afterglow’.
Throughout the album, the core duo - Rob Fleming (vocals, guitar, synths) and James Sedge (drums) - are reunited with the David Bowie band alumni who helped make the KillerStar debut so memorable: Mike Garson (piano), Earl Slick (guitar) and Mark Plati (bass). Backing vocals are provided by The Webb Sisters, Charley and Hattie, who have previously worked with David Gilmour, Tom Petty and Leonard Cohen. The record also features guest appearances on select tracks from Gerry Leonard (musical director and guitarist for Bowie’s ‘Heathen’ tour), Alfio Annibali (Alex Lifeson’s Envy Of None), Carey Frank (Bruce Springsteen) , Dom Beken from the KillerStar live band (Nick Mason’s Saucerful of Secrets) and Emm Gryner.
‘The Afterglow’ album was written by Rob Fleming with James Sedge, and the duo produced the set alongside Dave Eringa (Manic Street Preachers, The Who) who also mixed the record. It was completed with digital mastering courtesy of Joe La Porta at Sterling Sound and vinyl mastering by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios. It was recorded between London, New York and Los Angeles during sessions at studios including RAK, The Clubhouse, Strongroom and Dean Street Studios.
