Vinyl Hero has been hard at work writing and composing a fresh batch of new material for their short album release set for 2024. They’ve also been taking advantage of the road with a slue of performances in and around Ontario in 2023. They were featured at the Gussapolooza Festival in Cookstown Ontario and also played the legendary Horse Shoe Tavern in downtown Toronto. Without missing a beat, they stopped along the way in Kingston, Peterborough and Oshawa where they’ve had a chance to build a fan base from other stints on the road. Ray Howard was the opening act for former lead singer of Motley Crew John Corabi’s acoustic tour. Plus, to close out the year, the boys from Vinyl Hero played 2 hometown shows in MTL. One of which was opening up for Canada’s own Finger 11. 

“GETTING LOST” (2023 single release)

Vinyl Hero continues their on-going collaboration with one of the FreqShop Studio's Maestros, Dave Traina (The Damn Truth) helming the board & mix alongside the mastering of Harry Hess. With the addition of Dawn Cumbebatch providing a sultry, soulful and powerful layer of vocals on this track, “Getting Lost” stays true to Vinyl Hero’s sound but delivers a welcome piece that finds it’s place in their puzzle of music. Whether it be the gang-like vocal during the chorus or her own moment in the song’s breakdown, she is heard and it's glorious.

With influences drawing from Queens Of the Stone Age, Stone Temple Pilots, as well as fellow Canadians Big Wreck, Vinyl Hero has not placed its cross-hairs on adhering to a particular sound or bandwagon. The Montreal power trio is best described as Deep, Honest, Powerful and True. Their ethos; to embody in music, humanity, living emotion and the organic nature characteristic of music during the vinyl era, all while delivering smart arrangements with impactful dynamics and deft akin to power trios such as Nirvana and The Tea Party.

The feeling you get when headbanging to a Vinyl Hero tune is best described as a Symphony of Synchronicity. 3 different individuals with one main goal. Ray Howard and Costa Siarlis (founding members) had a couple of years to curate their songs and sounds with different members and once Tiburce Perlau was added to the lineup their overall sound hit a level that has become the standard Vinyl Hero trademark sound!
