JIM PETERIK & WORLD STAGE – ‘Tigress : Women Who Rock The World’
Frontiers Music Srl is proud to present the latest stroke of musical genius from the inimitable Jim Peterik. ‘Tigress : Women Who Rock The World’ by Jim Peterik & World Stage will be released on 5th November, with a first single from it entitled ‘Prom Night In Pontiac’ released today. The song features Chloe Lowery (lead vocals), Anika Nilles (drums) and Ashley Reeve (bass).
Keen to showcase female musicians that he admires, Peterik has always loved a musical challenge and the idea of making a new World Stage album featuring primarily women proved inspirational to him. Compiling a wish list of artists he wanted to work with, he also began crafting ideas that could work for their styles. He states that “I discovered that I needed to write songs that reflected the female perspective more than the male. It was gratifying when talented artists and heroes of mine such as Janet Gardner (ex-Vixen), Cathy Richardson (Jefferson Starship), Jenniffer Batten, Mindi Abair, Kate French, Kimi Hayes, Chez Kane, Rosa Laricchiuta (Black Rose Maze, Trans-Siberian Orchestra) and so many others gave me the big thumbs up! Up-and-comers like Lindsay Kent, Leslie Hunt, Chloe Lowery, Marine Lacoste and so many others also added their unique personalities to make this a landmark album in my career. I hope you enjoy listening to the finished record as much as I enjoyed creating it. Much love and Rock & Roll!”
A full list of participants can be seen in the tracklisting below.
Jim Peterik has written or co-written some of the most memorable songs in rock: ‘Vehicle’ by The Ides Of March (on which he was also lead vocalist and guitarist), ‘Eye Of The Tiger’, ‘The Search Is Over’, ‘High On You’ and ‘I Can’t Hold Back’, hits for .38 Special such as ‘Hold On Loosely’, ‘Caught Up In You’, ‘Fantasy Girl’ and ‘Rockin’ Into The Night’, ‘Heavy Metal’ with Sammy Hagar and many more. Also part of the duo Pride of Lions with vocalist Toby Hitchcock, Peterik is one of the most loved and esteemed recording artists and songwriters in the wider melodic rock community.
