Italian hard-rockers SANDNESS are back with their fourth album Play Your Part! The album follows their two previous records released on Rockshots Records, 2020 EP Enter Please (2020) and 2019 LP Untamed. The new album is produced, mixed and mastered by Michele Guaitoli and it will feature twelve original tracks including a bonus cover version of KISS' Turn On The Night. Play Your Part is a different kind of animal from their previous releases as, due to the lockdown, the band had more time to think and work on the songs. They also worked a lot more with their producer Michele, who helped them to bring their music to the next level. The new album is more mature and inspired by different styles: hard rock, classic rock, heavy metal, 70's rock n'roll, but also pop music from different decades. Since their first independent release in 2010, Sandness has toured Europe multiple times, playing small venues and festivals in Latvia, France, Slovakia, Austria, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Belgium, Netherlands and Croatia. Over the years, the band shared the stage with renowned musicians such as Adam Bomb, L.A. Guns, Tygers Of Pan Tang, Reckless Love, Nazareth and Lita Ford.
