I know it\u2019s a clich\u00e9 but, in our humble opinion, this is our most exciting recording to date, and we can\u2019t wait to get it out there in front of a crowd.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u201cKiss The Sky\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;is a no-nonsense rock and roll album at heart. For their fourth album, Bad Touch have stripped everything right back and looked at what the essence of what makes a great album and at the core, great songs. They&#8217;ve stuck to what they do best, which is writing catchy, feel good rock music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The songs were initially written in their practice studio &#8220;The Cabin&#8221; in Norfolk where the band feels most comfortable and can focus on the songs without outside world interference. The band have really nailed their sound on this album. When you turn it on you will instantly know it&#8217;s Bad Touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The production side of the album is about capturing the performance within the band themselves and capturing the &#8220;moment&#8221; and energy the band produce during their live shows. More plugging straight in, turning everything to 10 and going for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;It&#8217;s always hard to recreate the live energy created during a show in the studio, but this time I really think we&#8217;ve nailed it,\u201d says Bad Touch\u2019s guitarist\u00a0<strong>Robert Glendinning<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ontinues Glendinning, \u201cWe chose Rockfield Studios one obviously for its legendary reputation but two because it\u2019s just like being at home. It\u2019s what we know, being in the countryside and where I feel we are all inspired.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u201cKiss the Sky\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0is a power-packed album that has the groove with huge chorus hooks, foot stomping guitar riffs and an abundance of energy overflowing within each track. If you want to see what all the fuss is about catch Bad Touch on tour throughout March and April 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBad Touch live for being on the road,\u201d adds Westwood. \u201cThere\u2019s nothing we love more than giving people an escape from the trials of life and playing our brand of feel-good rock and roll for the soul..\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs a unit, we plan on hitting the UK hard with regards touring and festivals,\u201d says Westwood. \u201cWe were very lucky to do more in Europe throughout 2019, and we hope to continue that trend into this year as well. We\u2019ve got a couple of things in the pipeline, and we are beyond ecstatic to be opening the main stage at Ramblin\u2019 Man Fair. It\u2019s one of our favorite UK festivals, and to think that they\u2019ve put us on the main stage alongside giants like Clutch and Monster Truck is so cool..\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"798\" height=\"798\" src=\"http:\/\/skylight.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BadTouch-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12839\" srcset=\"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BadTouch-1.jpg 798w, https:\/\/skylight.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BadTouch-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/skylight.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BadTouch-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/skylight.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/BadTouch-1-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 798px) 100vw, 798px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Band photo credit: <strong>\u00a9 Will Ireland<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ramblinmanfair\/\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a><strong>\u00a0|\u00a0<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RamblinManFair\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a><strong>\u00a0|\u00a0<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ramblinmanfair\/\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Wave of Classic Rock favorites&nbsp;Bad Touch&nbsp;release the second single \u2013&nbsp;\u2018I Get High\u2019&nbsp;\u2013 from their&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12840,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23,2],"tags":[967],"class_list":["post-12837","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music-news","category-news","tag-bad-touch"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12837","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12837"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12837\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12841,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12837\/revisions\/12841"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12840"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12837"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12837"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12837"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
