MY YEARS WITH UFO

XIII DOORS
Opium Live • Fri 9 May 2025 • 6:00pm
Hamburg, June 19th, 2024 – The world of rock guitar has always been illuminated by a few virtuosic stars who shine brighter than the rest, and among them, Michael Schenker stands out as a comet blazing across the night sky.
His tenure with the British hard rock band UFO during the 1970s remains one of the most celebrated periods in the annals of rock, elevating UFO from underground sensations to rock legends.
Now in 2024, Michael Schenker is set to celebrate those glory days with his new album ‘My Years with UFO’ alongside today’s rock elite.
Produced by Michael Schenker and Michael Voss, the new album marks the 50th anniversary of Schenker’s era with UFO, spanning from 1972 to 1978. The ‘German Wunderkind’ was asked to join UFO at just 17 years old. Touring the globe as a teenager, Schenker became a driving force behind some of UFO’s most loved tracks, such as ‘Doctor Doctor’, ‘Rock Bottom’, and ‘Only You Can Rock Me’.
The first single off the new album, ‘Mother Mary’, breathes new life into this classic, bringing together Michael Schenker’s and Slash’s unmatched guitar work with Erik Grönwall’s soaring vocals.
Although Michael Schenker’s era with UFO spanned only six years, his influence as a young songwriter and exceptional guitarist had already left a lasting mark on rock.
During these meteoric years, the UFO albums ‘Phenomenon’, ‘Force It’, ‘No Heavy Petting’, ‘Lights Out’, ‘Obsession’, and the seminal live album ‘Strangers in the Night’ were recorded, each contributing significantly to the genre. ‘Strangers in the Night’ particularly stands out as one of the most influential live rock albums of all time and is still regarded as a cornerstone in any rock enthusiast’s collection.
In this celebratory album, Michael Schenker presents 11 of UFO’s greatest hits from this magical era with an impressive lineup of guest stars. Joining Schenker on this journey are Derek Sherinian on keys, Brian Tichy on drums, and Barry Sparks on bass.
The stellar roster of guest artists includes Axl Rose, Slash, Kai Hansen, Roger Glover, Joey Tempest, Biff Byford, Jeff Scott Soto, John Norum, Dee Snider, Joel Hoekstra, Joe Lynn Turner, Carmine Appice, Adrian Vandenberg, Michael Voss, Stephen Pearcy, and Erik Grönwall.
This album is the introduction to an upcoming trilogy, as Michael Schenker has signed an exclusive three-album deal with earMUSIC, with additional albums to follow in 2025 and 2026.
Today’s release of ‘Mother Mary’ sets the stage for what promises to be one of the most exciting rock albums of 2024.
‘My Years with UFO’ will be released worldwide on September 20th, 2024, and is now available for pre-order.

I’m Mon, born in Mon Rovia, Liberia. My life can be summed up by being born into a civil war, escaping the life of a child soldier, rescued by the hands of missionaries. Spent a lot of my developmental years living in a variety of places with a number of life experiences. And then layered on top of all of this is the assimilation I felt being a transracially adopted refugee. My music in a nutshell is a culmination of these experiences blended with the empathy I feel for the experiences with others. The mission of my music is to heal with others – with every nation and tongue, in due time.

‘Setting Sons’ 45th Anniversary Tour
+ special guests
LONDON CALLING
Opium Live • Fri 16 May 2025 • 7pm
From the Jam were formed in 2006 when Russell Hastings and Rick Buckler (ex-The Jam drummer), who were touring as The Gift, joined forces with Bruce Foxton (ex-The Jam bassist and songwriter), to form From The Jam. Russell Hastings has been the only frontman to work with both Rick Buckler and Bruce Foxton since Paul Weller.
From the Jam will tour the UK celebrating the 45th Anniversary of The Jam’s fourth studio album Setting Sons. The critically acclaimed album reached #4 in the UK and was the band’s first album to enter the US charts. Succeeding All Mod Cons, the album became a commercial success, earning them their first top ten hit single The Eton Rifles. ”It seems that even the obscure album tracks like Little Boy Soldiers and Thick As Thieves are as popular when we play them live as the hit singles.” says Russell Hastings.
London Calling are the world’s premiere tribute to The Clash. After sellout tours of Australia and the UK, London Calling will be performing hits and fan favourites of The Clash such as Should I Stay or Should I Go, Rock the Casbah, I Fought the Law, White Man in Hammersmith Palais, Complete Control, Clash City Rockers, Garageband, Safe European Home, Train in Vain, and, of course, London Calling.

Live Tonite is proud to present the Irish debut show of Carolina Durante on May 17th from 7:00 pm at Opium, Dublin.
Carolina Durante’s significance goes beyond sales, social media numbers, or chart positions. Their impact is rooted in intangibles elements that transform a band into a phenomenon. From the moment they formed after a Los Punsetes concert, they faced challenges in an era dominated by urban and Latin music, yet they maintained the excitement of their early days. This persistence, along with their ability to redefine rock and guitar-driven pop, made them the defining band of their generation.
The group is unique not because of famous members, but because of the chemistry between Diego’s charismatic voice, Mario’s punk-pop guitar, Martín’s steady bass, and Juan’s eccentric drumming. Each member’s contribution is vital to their sound and identity. Through collaborations with artists like Amaia, Jota Planetas, Santiago Motorizado, and Rosalía, Carolina Durante has balanced mainstream success with a devoted cult following. Their journey speaks to intangibles an ever evolving story where the best is yet to come.
