Legendary band Nektar have made the huge announcement of their brand new stunning album, ‘The Other Side’. It is now available for pre-order here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Throughout the 70s, the band released a series of acclaimed albums which charted in Germany, and across the pond in the US where they relocated later in their career. After the tragic passing of member Roye Albrighton in 2016, remaining members\u00a0Derek \u201cMo\u201d Moore (bass, vocals), Ron Howden (drums, vocals) & Mick Brockett (lyrics, visual conceptions) reunited alongside;\u00a0Randy Dembo (bass, 12-string guitar), Ryche Chlanda (guitar, vocals) & Kendall Scott (keyboards) in 2018 where they resumed their journey by creating new music.<\/p>\n

Ryche Chlanda recorded with Nektar back in 1978 for ‘The Other Side’. The band have since re-vamped the record by altering the music and lyrics which is what we will be hearing on this album.<\/p>\n

Not only are they releasing an album after so long, they’re also doing a whopping tour around the US! If interested, you can find tickets via the bands website<\/a>. Be sure to check out the bands Facebook<\/a>, Instagram<\/a> and Twitter<\/a> for more updates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
