RUSS BALLARD Readies Release Of New Double Album, Songs From The Warehouse/The Hits Rewired By Larry Petro, News Monkey Monday, March 3, 2025 @ 8:00 AM
Renowned rock singer RUSS BALLARD is thrilled to announce the release of his upcoming double album Songs From The Warehouse/The Hits Rewired, out on April 18th, 2025, via Frontiers Music Srl. To celebrate the announcement, the new single and official video, "Resurrection", are available today.
Commenting on the new single, RUSS BALLARD states:
"A last-minute addition to the album. Roly, who wrote the song together with me, said that "Resurrection" would be a cool song title. That simple. It turned out to be too good to miss it on the album. A true rocker."

RUSS BALLARD is simply one of the most renowned and gifted songwriters in pop and rock music. His music career started when he was only 14 years old and he wrote a tune, which was recorded by THE SHADOWS, appearing on their album The Sound Of The Shadows in 1964.
During the 70's and 80's, his songs ruled the airwaves and the list of hits is pretty much endless. From "Since You Been Gone" (RAINBOW), "God Gave Rock 'n' Roll To You" (ARGENT, KISS), "So You Win Again" (HOT CHOCOLATE), "New York Groove" (HELLO, ACE FREHLEY), "You Can Do Magic" (AMERICA), "Winning" (SANTANA) or "I Don't Believe In Miracles" (Colin Blunstone) - just to name a few - everyone who needed a great song knew that with RUSS BALLARD they could not go wrong.
Numerous records/artists were also produced by him, like Roger Daltrey, America, Elkie Brooks, Skindred or Sada Vidoo. In 1974, he started a solo career (after his stint with the band ARGENT in early 70's), which had its highest momentum with the S/t album in 1984 (which included the hit single "Voices") and the follow up The Fire Still Burns.
Since then, BALLARD has released 10 studio albums and is still writing and producing hits. Three songs from his 1984 and 1985 albums were featured in the TV show Miami Vice and were extensively played on dance floors around Europe.
The upcoming release, Songs From The Warehouse/The Hits Rewired, is a real treat for all rock fans: the first CD contains new songs, which show once again that the inspiration never left RUSS, while the second CD includes brand new recordings of famous hits either penned or performed by him during the years.
"It's a buzz releasing a new album. What started as my "Lockdown-tapes" during the pandemic became an album! During lockdown, my studio was a life saver for me, and I found new ways of writing and recording. The result gives the listeners a good insight into this time - have a listen!"
