The
eagerly awaited debut album from Burnt Out Wreck featuring ex-Heavy
Pettin's Gary Moat is now available! “Swallow” is a huge slice of full
on, punchy classic hard rock with guitar riffs galore! Released via
Cherry Red Records, this album is every bit as good as you would expect
from one of Scotland's original rock n rollers, Gary Moat!
Says Gary,
“I went in to the studio to record a set of songs. Before I knew it,
'Swallow' had been created, and now here it is. I thoroughly enjoyed
being in the studio but it was never my intention to become a recording
artist again but here I am. It is crazy but I'm loving it. The album is a
culmination of all my influences. It has been 30 years in the making
and it seems it's being received very well everywhere...which is
fantastic.”
Gary
has a colorful history as the drummer and main songwriter for metal
legends Heavy Pettin'. The band were signed to Polydor and Warner
Chappell in 1983 with help from Def Leppard's manager Peter Mensch. They
toured extensively until 1988 with Kiss, Ozzy Osbourne, Whitesnake,
Ratt, Motley Crue, Saxon, Accept and Magnum amongst others, as well as
headlining their own tours. They recorded three albums with different
producers: Brian May, Mark Dearnley and Adrian Lee/Tony Taverner. Heavy
Pettin' also played the likes of Reading Festival, Loreley and other
major festivals, as well as recording The Friday Rock Show for Tommy
Vance & Tony Wilson.
Gary
created Burnt Out Wreck in the summer of 2016. After penning songs for
an album, he ventured into the studio under the watchful eye of
acclaimed sound engineer Steve Rispin (Asia), and with Gary's
determination to create good time classic rock, “Swallow” began to take
shape. For Burnt Out Wreck, Gary has traded the drum stool for the
microphone. He has his own imitable style, and is frequently compared to
Bon Scott and Marc Storace.
Burnt
Out Wreck's “Swallow” is co-produced by Gary Moat and Steve Rispin
(Asia, Inglorious), mastered by Pete Maher (U2, The Killers, Jack White,
Rolling Stones etc).
