10 years after releasing their debut album Heart of Midwinter, Miss Behaviour is back with their 4th studio album Ghost Play. With Ghost Play the band is ready to take their career to the next level.

The breakthrough came with the album Last Woman Standing (2011). In spring 2011 Miss Behaviour competed in Swedish national radio with the song Till we meet again, making the premiere live performance with the current lineup in front of 400.000 radio listeners. Late 2011 the album Last Woman Standing won the Melodic.net ”Best AOR album of 2011” readers poll, and got fantastic reviews from magazines such as Classic Rock (UK), Sweden Rock Magazine (SE) and more. UK Magazine Classic Rock picked Cynthia as one of the best tracks in 2011, and featured the song on the compilation Classic Rock Buzz.

The band promoted Last Woman Standing with two successful tours in the UK, 2011 and 2012.

The follow up album to Last Woman Standing, entitled Double Agent was released in August 2014 on AOR Heaven. Once again the reviews were great – Classic Rock, Sweden Rock Magazine and Aftonbladet (SE) all praised – and this also earned them a slot on Stockholm Rocks Festival in November.

Ghost Play is classic hard rock, with a great production and a great variety of songs. Everything is presented in a way that always been the essence of Miss Behaviour. Great melodies are in focus. This time it is presented, however, with a more powerful sound.

MAVERICK are five musicians from Belfast/Northern Ireland who have set out to forge a unique brand of melodic hard rock that incorporates their favorite elements of metal and old school rock with emphasis on big hooks, melody and great riffs. Since their inception in August 2012 they have always strived to entertain as a live act and stand out from the rest. The first album was the EP 'Talk's Cheap' which was self-released in 2013 and caught the attention of German label Massacre Records. They released their first full length album "Quid Pro Quo" in 2014. After the release they went out on the road together with Swedish superstars THE POODLES for a three-week tour in Europe, which brought them to six different countries. More support shows have been played for bands like Y&T, TIGERTAILZ or FASTER PUSSYCAT.

After the tour MAVERICK decided to start a new chapter and signed to METALAPOLIS RECORDS. "Big Red" once again proves their love for catchy melodies and big guitar riffs. The first video/single of the album will be "Asylum", a very special song for the band. It features Jakob Samuel, lead singer of THE POODLES and the former ALICE COOPER guitarist Kane Roberts, who did an amazing solo on this track.
