The Canadian / Californian rockers LIONS IN THE STREET have released a new single, titled “Shangri-La”. It’s the second single to be taken from the band’s hotly anticipated album Moving Along, due Friday 8th November 2024.
We’ve characterised this band’s sound as “roaring galumptious superspeedway exploits with marauding slugs of groovy guitar…”
a captivating piano cascade, dance-worthy rhythms, and mouthwatering grooves….

“Shangri-La is a rock’n’roll song that goes back to the call and response blues tradition via the Faces and Rod Stewart,” says Lions in the Street frontman / guitarist Chris Kinnon.
“We wrote it after living in LA for a long time making a record, then returning to 40 straight days of rain in Vancouver, Canada. It’s a song about the struggles of being in a rock band, with (in our humble opinion) the best classic rock guitar sounds since the second Black Crowes record and the Georgia Satellites.”
Thus, Shangri-la (video shared below) has a captivating piano cascade, dance-worthy rhythms, and mouthwatering grooves. It’s bubbly and agreeably bumpy.
With powerful lyrics and soaring vocals, Shangri-la is a joyously romping rock ‘n’ roller. If you need a sharpening boost to your wakefulness, give Lions in the Street a try!
