Gizmodrome, the all-star band made up of Stewart Copeland, Mark King, Vittorio Cosma and Adrian Belew, has announced a new live album, Gizmodrome Live, which is due out on the 19th of November.
With a collective CV that includes The Police, Level 42, King Crimson, David Bowie, Frank Zappa, Talking Heads and PFM, they make ‘a cosmopolitan blend of progressive rock and a pinch of punk with a heavy twist of avant-garde humour.’
As the famed drummer and composer states on his official website: “Right from the start, it was not meant to be a one-off side project but the beginning of something truly unique and exciting. The first live album ‘Gizmodrome Live’, to be released on November 19th, 2021, builds on the foundation laid by the band’s debut album [titled Gizmodrome, released in 2017 – BeatIt] and allows for even more unpredictable outbursts of creative energy. Recorded in Florence, Rome, Tokyo, Osaka, Aschaffenburg and London, it perfectly captures [our] commitment to this band and the pioneering collaboration.”
With Stewart Copeland on drums, guitars and vocals, Mark King on bass and vocals as well as the guitar work and vocal parts by Adrian Belew, rounded off by Vittorio Cosma on keyboards – it all comes together in a one-of-a-kind combination on “Gizmodrome Live”. Copeland shares lead vocal duties with Belew and King and the band powers through a setlist comprised of their debut album as well as a selection of songs from The Police and King Crimson.
“Gizmodrome Live” will become available on high quality 45rpm Triple 12” Vinyl Gatefold Edition as well as on a Double-CD Digipak Edition and Digital. The CD as well as its digital formats comes with an exclusive version of the band’s song “Don’t Box Me In” featuring Italian Rock superstar Manuel Agnelli (Afterhours) on vocals.
