Since forming in 1989, Thunder have established themselves among the UK’s most consistent attractions, notching up some twenty Top Fifty singles, 2 gold albums, and cultivating a well-deserved reputation as consummate live performers. The band’s sound is a timeless marriage of unforgettable melodies and sheer rock power. After their sensational return with their Classic Rock Award nominated album “Wonder Days” in 2015, their 2017 release “Rip It Up” achieved a top 3 UK chart entry, their best in 22 years, which shows how after over 27 years in business, Thunder is less than ready to hang up their hat. They do not remain stiff and chose the easy way out, but aim towards challenging themselves and their listeners.

Having gained the top-line status that their talent demands, 2017 was the year that Thunder embarked on a vast headlining arena tour through Europe, North America & Asia. Besides countless hours doing what they do best, this arena tour also resulted in a fulminant recording of one of these shows. “Stage” perfectly manages to capture the essence of the exhilarating atmosphere that was present that special night in Cardiff – live at Motorpoint Arena in Cardiff on March 24th 2017. The show features various songs from different points of reference of the Thunder era – an era full of celebrated records and incredible talent for live performance. An accrued selection of fan-favorite classics like “Low Life In High Places” or “Love Walked In” was sandwiched between interesting current titles like “Rip It Up” or “She Likes The Cocaine” – making it a great fit for new fans and long enthusiasts alike. The recording has been made available in a vast array of formats; ranging from CD or vinyl, to DVD and Blu-Ray, and a very special limited edition box set – making sure every fans gets exactly what they want and need.
