NIGHTWORK reissue

STEELHEART Records is proud to announce the signing of U.S. AOR band NIGHTWORK for the reissue of their one and only self-titled album (released back in 1986) on the much appreciated "LOST U.S. JEWELS" Series. NIGHTWORK was started during 1984 in San Antonio, Texas, by ex-members of AOR band Winterkat: Ric Swanson, Chris Watkins, Tim Saunders, Jeffrey Doyle and Jamie Vallejo. It was just the right time in the right place and the chemistry of the band produced some incredibly penned new songs and a bunch of flamboyant live-shows. Their vinyl legacy, the 7-songs album called “Nightwork”, far outreached their Texas-following, acquiring the favors of the critics and connoisseurs of capital AOR music around the globe, from its release in 1986 well into the 21st century: the original LP is now a prized collector’s item amongst AOR / Melodic Rock collectors! Opening shows across Texas for bands like Cheap Trick, Eddie Money, Kansas, UFO, Head East and Eric Johnson (just to name a...
