Swedish classic rock goldsmiths GIN LADY unveil a new side of their sound with "Toads & Diamonds Volume One: Live In Spain", their first-ever live album to be issued this June 19th on Ripple Music. Listen to a thrilling first excerpt now with "Far Beyond The Sun"!

Just one year after signing to California's Ripple Music and releasing their acclaimed latest studio album Before the Dawn of Time, the Swedish classic rock mainstays return with their first-ever live record this spring. Their latest tour of Spain was electrifying, and classic and vintage psychedelic fans alike are finally getting a chance to either relive these nights of pure adventure or experience them for the first time! 

Recorded live during their tour of Spain from February to March 2025, with live versions of material focusing mainly on the latter part of their discography, Gin Lady's Toads & Diamonds Volume One: Live In Spain demonstrates the band's ability to take the studio recordings and make something totally different. It’s more psychedelic, experimental, and playful in many ways: you get the sense that the band is setting off on a journey, and as a listener, you can’t help but climb aboard just to see where they'll lead you.

Sometimes you land in the swamp among the toads, and other times you follow these guys all the way across the galaxy. That contrast—between the earthy, grounded music and the far-out, cosmic jams—is what makes this album so interesting and compelling, even for experienced Gin Lady fans. ”This is a dream come true in so many ways. First, putting out a live album on vinyl has been on our bucket list since day one. But more than that, we really felt the need to share what we do on stage with all our fans—not just the ones lucky enough to be there in the room with us,” says the lead guitarist Johnny Stenberg

Hailing from northern Sweden, Gin Lady has been slowly but steadily carving out their own space in the rock sphere by delivering soul-stirring music that weaves their 60s and 70s rock roots with tight melodies, liquid grooves, and captivating three-part vocal harmonies that prove the foursome's unmistakable chemistry. Throughout a decade of rock'n'roll and six studio releases, the band has shown a skyrocketing progression as songwriters, making them a favorite among classic rock connoisseurs in Europe and beyond through impressive jam-driven live performances. 

In 2024, Gin Lady signed to Californian label Ripple Music for the world release of their seventh studio album "Before the Dawn of Time", another sonic gem and a true sonic experience for all lovers of soulful and timeless rock from across the music sphere, hailed as "a refreshing mix of 60s psychedelia with modern touches" by MXDWN and "a sound that screams 70s but never sounds like a rehash of what we have all heard before" by Musipedia of Metal.
