Cherry Red

Cherry Red is a British label that was founded by Iain McNay in 1978. Also known as Cherry Red Records, this label has become associated with the company Music and Media Group. With the label code LC 6730, Cherry Red has made a name for itself in the music industry. It is important to note that this label should not be confused with the US label of the same name.

Formed in 1969, Hawkwind are a prolific and pioneering space-rock group from the UK. Known for their science fiction themed music and theatrical concerts, they gained fame for their exhibitions of pulsing electronics, dazzling light shows, and LSD consumption. Founder member Dave Brock has been the sole mainstay of the band since its inception, steering them through various musical genres including heavy metal, new wave, ambient and techno. Notable contributors have included Lemmy (of Motörhead), Ginger Baker (of Cream) and science fiction writer Michael Moorcock.
Hawkwind quickly made a name for themselves on the free festival circuit after forming in 1969. They would perform live without fee wherever possible.
Their 1971 album 'In Search of Space' solidified Hawkwind's reputation as pioneers of space-rock music. The album showcased their unique blend of science fiction themes with psychedelic rock sounds.

The brand-new studio album by the legendary Hawkwind – All Aboard The Skylark. The album is the band’s 32nd studio album and a storming return to their space rock roots. 2019 marks the beginning of the Hawkwind’s 50th Anniversary year and All Aboard The Skylark picks up effortlessly from their conceptual Top 40 charting albums The Machine Stops (2016) and Into The Woods (2017).

Musically the solid quartet of Dave Brock (guitar, vocals, keyboards), Richard Chadwick (drums), Niall Hone (bass, keyboards) and Magnus Martin (guitar, vocals) have created a tight, psychedelic groove that runs through the spine of the album, but embraces each musician’s individual talents along the way.
