A Big Week Dawn’s For Dakesis

Published:

First single released from new album this Friday

The New Dawn’ is the forthcoming album from UK progressive power metal band Dakesis which is due to be released on March 19th 2016

Dakesis are now excited to announce that the first single from this album ‘The Great Insurrection’ will be released on Friday 19th February 2016. The video for this track will also be released on the same day.

The single will be released exclusively through a “pay-what-you-want” rate on www.Dakesis.Bandcamp.com, with the price starting at £0.00.

Vocalist Gemma Lawler says “When it came to picking a single, this was the obvious choice. The Great Insurrection is a pivotal song in The New Dawn’s concept, it’s themes of frustration and eventual uprising encapsulate the revolutionary spirit of the album”

The video went from conception to completion in 48 hours, filmed and edited entirely by drummer Adam Harris who says: “It’s the first full length music video I’ve produced, and it’s been a great experience and exercise in producing results under pressure. I think I’ve managed to capture what Dakesis is about, and who we are as performers.

A second album launch event has been added at The Black Heart in London on Friday 1st April .
