BLACK STAR RIDERS And THE ALMIGHTY Frontman RICKY WARWICK Releases New Solo Single 'Last Chance To Dance'
"Last Chance To Dance" is the latest single to be released from Ricky's upcoming solo album, "Fire & Vengeance", which will arrive on September 4 via Earache Records. The album will be available across multiple color vinyl variants, signed editions, exclusive bundles and more.
Speaking about the meaning behind "Last Chance To Dance", Ricky says: "'Last Chance To Dance' is about knowing the clock is ticking and choosing to turn the music up instead of quietly heading for the door. It's about scars, second chances and squeezing every last drop out of the night. If this is the last chance to dance, then we're gonna make damn sure it counts."
The new single follows the release of "Seek Zen Destroy", which features legendary guitarist Phil Collen from DEF LEPPARD on guitar and backing vocals, and the explosive "Fire & Vengeance" title track, which came out in May.
Driven by raw guitars, defiant energy and Warwick's unmistakable voice, "Fire & Vengeance" captures the spirit of resilience and rebellion that has defined his career for decades. The album also features special appearances from the aforementioned Phil Collen (DEF LEPPARD),Doug Aldrich (WHITESNAKE, THE DEAD DAISIES),Charlie Starr (BLACKBERRY SMOKE) and Darren Holden (THE HIGH KINGS).
Speaking about the album, Ricky says: "I wanted to make an album that captures everything I love about rock 'n' roll — its power to bring people together, to make us dance and connect with one another, even in a world that often feels consumed by fire and vengeance. At its core, this record is about finding hope and unity in the chaos."
It's a record that showcases a musician at the very peak of his powers, able to switch from tattooed blue-collar anthems to THE ROLLING STONES-y balladeering and even the traditional Irish music that surrounded him growing up in County Down, Northern Ireland. Lyrically, he's up there with the very best — a working-class poet whose songs combine the autobiographical, the observational, the political, the cynical and the heartfelt.
From fronting THE ALMIGHTY and leading BLACK STAR RIDERS to his acclaimed solo work alongside RICKY WARWICK & THE FIGHTING HEARTS, Ricky Warwick has remained one of rock's most respected and enduring voices and one of rock 'n' roll's last true rebels.
Having spent almost 40 years marching to no beat other than his own, "Fire & Vengeance" comes just 18 months after the No. 25 U.K. album "Blood Ties", a record that saw Warwick return home to his native Northern Ireland after almost 20 years living in California.
Working quickly has given the 10 songs that make up "Fire & Vengeance" their undeniable energy.
"I'm not one of those guys who needs to disappear into a cabin in the mountains with all this fancy gear," Warwick says. "All I need is a room and a guitar, and the ideas come. It's a working-class thing, something I had instilled in me when I was a kid."
To celebrate the release, Ricky has a nine-date run of in-store shows in September before a full tour across the U.K. and Ireland in November.
Ricky adds: "I cannot wait for you to hear 'Fire & Vengeance' in full. Thank you for rocking with me all these years. Here's to many more together!"
