Dorian Sorriaux has joined the Sign Records for the release of his album “Children of the Moon”. Best known for being the lead guitarist of Blues Pills for 6 years, Dorian has toured extensively around Europe and Australia with Blue Pills playing some of the biggest European Festivals like Rock Am Ring, Hellfest, Download, Rock Werchter, Wacken, Roskilde, Sweden Rock, and opening for bands such as Deep Purple, John Fogerty, Rival Sons, and Europe. He released several EP’s, two studio albums and two live albums before leaving the band in 2018.
At the end of 2023, Dorian shared “I Believe That You Can Change”; the first single and music video from his upcoming album “Children of the Moon”. Now, on the 2nd of February, the French artist returns with the second single from the album, “Sunken Ship”.
Dorian comments:
Sunken Ship is the only actual love song on the album, it is about losing someone but from the perspective of reflecting on it years down the line. It´s a heartbreak song about unconditional love and is also about accepting the reality that you´re facing. The song has two parts which were both written over a year apart but with that same feeling and I felt like the instrumental outro tied the story of the song together. As I was mixing the album I decided to go back to the studio and record this song so it has a different feeling than the rest of the album, it´s one of the most intimate and personal songs on the record.
Many young players look to the guitar heroes of the 60s and 70s for inspiration, but very few are able to channel their influences as mesmerizingly as Dorian Sorriaux. When the young French guitarist burst onto the scene with rockers Blues Pills, he displayed an incredible maturity and expressiveness as a musician that was captured on their 2014 self-titled debut. Comparisons with legendary bluesmen Peter Green and Paul Kossoff weren’t hyperbole; you could hear their quality in Dorian’s playing touch. Following the success of Blues Pills’ second album Lady In Gold (2016), Dorian Sorriaux revealed surprising new depths to his talent as a singer / songwriter with his debut solo EP Hungry Ghost. The EP received wonderful reviews and allowed Dorian to tour all over Europe as a solo act opening for Myles Kennedy. He now reveals a much more personal style of music and songwriting with his upcoming record Children of the Moon coming out in 2024 on The Sign Records.
