“California Air (Better Here Than There)”, a new song from the GRAHAM BONNET BAND, can be streamed below. The track is taken from the group’s upcoming album, “The Book”, which will be released on November 4 via Frontiers Music Srl.

Graham Bonnet is a rock legend. With a pedigree that includes RAINBOW, MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP, ALCATRAZZ and IMPELLITTERI, he is one of the finest vocalists of his generation. His is a recognizable and unique voice on a number of classic hard rock albums, including RAINBOW‘s “Down To Earth” (1979), MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP‘s “Assault Attack” (1982), ALCATRAZZ‘s “No Parole For Rock ‘n’ Roll” (1983) and “Disturbing The Peace” (1985) and IMPELLITTERI‘s “Stand In Line” (1988).

The recently formed GRAHAM BONNET BAND features Bonnet on lead vocals, Beth-Ami Heavenstone on bass, South American sensation Conrado Pesinato on lead guitar, ex-ALCATRAZZ man Jimmy Waldo on keyboards, and Mark Zonder (known for his acclaimed work with WARLORD and FATES WARNING) on drums.

“The Book” offers 11 new songs where Bonnet lays down his legendary vocals over a selection of hard rock tunes that are chock full of great hooks and melodies.

“The songs on the album are very similar to what I have done in the past with RAINBOW, ALCATRAZZ and MSG,” says Graham. “I think this is what people want to hear from me and won’t be disappointed.”

Graham Bonnet is in fine form and the album is easily his best in decades: 11 new tracks that will blow hard rock fans away! The album also includes a bonus disc featuring re-recorded versions of some of the most well-known classics he has sung in his solo career and with RAINBOW, ALCATRAZZ, MSG and IMPELLITTERI.

The official EPK for the album is available below.

The GRAHAM BONNET BAND has spent twelve months touring solidly around the world, with performances at several major European festivals including an acclaimed set at Sweden Rock Festival.
