French composer, singer and multi-instrumentalist Steph Honde and Brazilian composer and drummer Fred Mika have formed a new band, going by the name Earth Lux, whose debut will be released by German record label, Metalville on 23rd August.Ahead of that and out now is ‘Paths Of Infinity’, one of the catchiest songs on the album as a single and video that you can check out here at RAMzine.Honde and Mika have previously worked together in the band Sunroad, but in early 2023, they decided to form a parallel band focussing on melodic hard rock, but also incorporating some 70s influences.Shortly after songwriting began, Mika contacted his German friend, singer, composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Michael Voss (Michael Schenker Group, Mad Max, Casanova) to take over the bass guitar for Earth Lux.Affiliates and friends, such as the British musician and producer Steve Mann (Eloy, Lionheart, MSG), who lives in Germany, to play keyboards, and latterly Irish singer Robin McAuley (Grand Prix, Survivor, Black Swan and also MSG), making it quite the international band.However, a short time later, McAuley – Having written only one of the Earth Lux album’s lyrics – was suddenly called to rejoin MSG, replacing Ronnie Romero, who decided to leave the group to pursue a solo career. To that end, Mika contacted another friend.Thus, American composer, singer and bassist Mark Boals (Yngwie Malmsteen, Ring Of Fire, Uli Jon Roth) came on board place Robin (who had even completed one of the album’s lyrics) to complete the band line-up halfway through last year.

EARTH LUX is a new band formed by French composer, singer, and multi-instrumentalist Steph Honde and drummer Fred Mika. Both musicians had previously worked together in the melodic hard rock band Sunroad.In early 2023, Steph and Fred decided to form a parallel band focusing on that classic melodic hard rock, but also incorporating some ’70s influences. Shortly after songwriting began, Fred contacted his German friend, singer, composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Michael Voss (Michael Schenker Group, Mad Max, Casanova) to take over the bass guitar for EARTH LUX.And, close to the other musician partnerships, such as the British musician and producer Steve Mann (Lionheart, MSG), who lives in Germany, for keyboard-line recordings, and the last member was completed by the Irish singer Robin McAuley (Grand Prix, Survivor, Black Swan and also MSG). A short time later, McAuley was suddenly called to rejoin MSG as the definitive singer Fred then contacted another friend, American composer, singer and bassist Mark Boals (Yngwie Malmsteen, Ring Of Fire, Uli Jon Roth) to replace Robin (who had even completed one of the album’s lyrics).So by mid-2023, EARTH LUX was fully formed and hungry for the first album, their self-titled to be released August 23.
