The band have joined forces with a team of musicians and trusted collaborators from David Bowie’s band: Mike Garson on piano, Earl Slick and Mark Plati on guitar, Gail Ann Dorsey and Tim Lefebvre on bass, Emm Gryner on backing vocals, and Donny McCaslin on saxophone.
Collectively, the KillerStar album’s guest musicians have contributed to almost every era of Bowie’s vast discography, from the landmark ‘Aladdin Sane’ to the final goodbye of ‘Blackstar’. Although, while the KillerStar name references one of Bowie’s relatively deeper cuts, the album really doesn’t feel like an homage to The Thin White Duke. And that’s simply because it was never intended to be one. Rob and James wrote the songs and had recorded the first KillerStar demos independently, without any advance planning on who else would be involved.

Earl Slick says, “Since Bowie died, we’ve all gone off in different directions, but with this album we worked on new material and that was great.

“The standout Go (Hold On Tight) moves in slinky fashion before unfurling a gigantic, irresistible chorus; You’re A Chameleon channels Suede and the closing Falling Through takes almost seven minutes to tell its beguiling tale, as Donny McCaslin’s saxophone wails appealing in the background. There’s more to come here, hopefully”. (★★★★) MOJO
