Get Ready to ROCK! announce anniversary ambassadors

Popular classic rock web destination Get Ready to ROCK! celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2012.

Throughout the year GRTR! Ambassadors will be Magnum, the Midlands based band who celebrate their 40th anniversary in 2012. They release their latest album ‘Evolution’ in November and are planning tour and festival dates including headlining the Hard Rock Hell event in December.

Says Managing Editor David Randall: “We have long supported new and established artists with our rising stars and featured artist promotions, but we thought we’d do something different for 2012.”

“We’ve always supported Magnum and I’ve personally followed them from the early 1990s. Their renaissance in recent years coincides with the lifetime of Get Ready to ROCK! and we thought their own 40th anniversary was very relevant too.“

“They represent all that is good in rock music and have their own fascinating history, peaking in the late eighties, hard times in the 1990s, and a comeback in 2002 starting with the album ‘Breath Of Life’.”

“We’ll be celebrating their music throughout the year via our website and radio channel.”

Get Ready to ROCK! Radio can be accessed via iTunes’ Radio section, on stand-alone wi-fi radio sets, using a variety of mobile phone apps, or by visiting www.getreadytorockradio.com There are sequences for new and independent artists throughout the week.
