“Hard Love” is a deeply autobiographical rock n’ roll affair. Powerfully performed and strikingly personal, the 11 song album is quite a ride. The record contains covers of “Baby Baby” by the Vibrators and “I Love a Man in a Uniform” by post punk legends Gang of Four which Bebe truly makes her own.<\/p>\n
Bebe on “Hard Love”:
\n“This is the most important record of my career and it comes from deep in my soul and guts! I love my fans and that\u2019s why I do this. Hence the title \u2018Hard Love.\u2019
\nEvery track is filled with my heart, which beats for rock and roll. I\u2019m my happiest onstage and I can\u2019t wait to hit the road and play these songs live with the strongest line-up I\u2019ve ever made magic with. This is the album I’ve always wanted to make.”<\/p>\n
She delivers her vision with a stellar, powerhouse band:
\nFrank Ferrer\u00a0 (Gun n’ Roses)- on drums,
\nPete Marshall (Iggy Pop and Glenn Danzig’s Samhain) on bass
\nZac Lasher\u00a0 (U-Melt) on keyboards
\nJimmy Walls\u00a0 (Das Damen and DGeneration)- on guitars.
\nLouisa “Mysteria” Bradshaw supplies the backing vocals.<\/p>\n
The critics weigh in:
\nSome early press:
\n“Hard Love is a winner…packed with hit singles” Showbiz 411
\n“This album floored me …it’s just hit after hit…one of the best records you’ll hear all year” Sugarbuzz Magazine
