The Night Flight Orchestra Archives

We seem to be devoting a healthy chunk of our coverage to this Swedish AOR revivalist supergroup – which is perhaps not surprising as they have just dropped a new album AND kicked off what by their standards is a fairly extensive European tour.

The Night Flight Orchestra/Tragedy – Tilburg, 013 – 30 January 2025

Gig Reviews, Recently Added

This is a show where Jase W genuinely thought he shouldn’t travel all the way to Tilburg from Amsterdam on a weekday night but he’d been wanting to see The Night Flight Orchestra live for bloody years now. Considering how rarely they seem to do actual show tours, he couldn’t risk missing them. So there he was, on a Thursday night, at the other end of the Netherlands in 013 once again for some poppy rock and roll. Along for this particular stop is Bee Gees metal cover act, Tragedy, who are also selling a T-shirt in the merch section with “I sweat glitter and cum confetti” on the front of it, love it.

The Night Flight Orchestra ‘Give Us The Moon’ (Napalm Records)

Before every festival that he goes to, Jonny B tries to find the time to listen to every band on the lineup to make sure he hasn’t missed any hidden gems. This really paid off before Bloodstock 2021 and JBI spent the run up to the festival hyping The Night Flight Orchestra to anyone who would listen… unfortunately they ultimately had to pull out and it wasn’t until 2022 that we got to see them at the festival but it was definitely worth the wait!

Our team of ninja reviewers have been consistently amazed at how artists, both individually and collectively, have consistently risen to the challenges we have all faced over the past 12 months to produce, in many cases, the best work of their careers to date.

VIDEO OF THE WEEK – MOTIVES

Features, Recently Added, Video of the Week

Welcome to the first ‘Video of the Week’ feature for 2020! As the bands were seemingly still keeping it low key after Christmas and new year, we gave last week a miss, rather than present only a couple of videos, instead saving them for this week as we have another bumper list of submissions to wade through.
