More dissappointing news for melodic rock fans out of the UK today:
"Hey, rockers!
We hope you're well and are having a good summer so far.
Following months of careful consideration, we would like to announce that we have collectively decided to place Night by Night on an extended hiatus.
We thank you for all your endless and passionate support over the past 8 years; we've had unforgettable experiences, travelled to wonderful places, made countless friends and achieved things we all dreamed of. Now, for the foreseeable future, we will be exploring different avenues.
We are incredibly proud of the album, 'NxN', and have you to thank for driving and encouraging us to achieve it. The feedback we have had from all over the world has been overwhelming. That our music has had such a positive impact on people is a huge deal for us and is exactly what we set out to do in the beginning.
Thank you again for all your passion for NxN, it’s been a pleasure, an honour and an absolute blast throughout!
Best,
Ben, Jon, Tom & Damien :) www.nxnofficial.com

As of today, we have officially parted company with vocalist Henry Rundell. The decision is an amicable one and we thank him and wish him all the best for his future.
Henry: "It is with sadness I must inform you all of my departure from NxN. It is a decision I did not come to lightly but feel is the right one for me. I have had great fun playing with the guys & we had some amazing times both on the road & in the studio. I wish everyone all the best in what they do & say a big thank you to all who supported NxN & myself throughout the years.”
We will still play the next 3 shows (London, Grimsby and Hard Rock Hell) with the superb Dan Leigh of New Device. Thanks to all of you for always standing by us! :) If you or someone you know is interested in the role of lead vocalist for the band, get in touch.
Here's Dan Leigh; some of you may recall that he stepped into help us at Hard Rock Hell 2012:
You guys totally rock and we thank you so much for all your love and support over the years.
We look forward to seeing you all at the next shows! :D
British melodic rockers Night By Night have been hailed as the future of this aging genre and I’m here to back that claim and push it one step further – its vitally important to the longevity of the melodic music scene that we continue to welcome, nurture and promote awesome new talent like this or we may as well all give it up right now.
Night By Night prove that you can still write catchy, energetic and fresh melodic rock in 2014 and in doing so give some old rockers a kick in the pants as to what is expected that fans want today.
Not everyone wants nostalgia 24/7. But don’t think these guys are an all-new sound, they just take the old sensibilities and make it their own.
This is the best of old-school hooks and harmonies, driving guitars and anthemic catchy choruses, delivered with a fresh spunky attitude and a contemporary production sound.
And if you feel let down by the latest Tesla album, then this should fire a rocket up you! Vocalist Henry Rundell has an uncanny sound not far removed from Jeff Keith in his heyday.
Guiatrists Ben Christo and Tom Daniel guides the band through some cracking riffs and solos.
The production on here is simply fabulous – balanced mix and a crunchy sound. The album has been a long time coming and is well worth the wait.
If Time To Escape, Holding Onto Holding On and Can’t Walk Away don’t blow you away, the more melodic Everywhere Tonight will insert itself into your brain for days at a time.
If darker and heavier is what you want, Siren delivers, a hybrid of Tesla, Def Leppard and melodic Dokken.
Then there’s the glorious AOR of A Thousand Lies – perfect melodic rock here folks.
The Moment is another fast moving gem and the band saves one of their most urgent tracks for last – Never Die Again is a pounding guitar driven masterpiece.
British hard rockers NIGHT BY NIGHT, who feature Ben Christo (SISTERS OF MERCY guitarist) in their ranks, have released the new music video, for the song 'A Thousand Lies'. The clip is taken from the forthcoming debut album'NxN', due to release on July 11 (Europe), July 14 (UK) and July 15 (USA/Canada) via A Sun Hill Production/Cargo Records. The video can be viewed below:
Classic Rock UK magazine states: 'We recently claimed that Night By Night were spearheading the 'new wave of AOR', and we see no reason to change our opinion now. A Thousand Lies has the harmonies, and the big shiny guitars, and the chorus a postman might sing in the shower.'
'NxN' was produced by Romesh Dodangoda (Mot'rhead, Bullet For My Valentine, Sylosis) at Outhouse studios, engineered by Rob Thomas, lead vocals produced & engineered by Ben Christo & Henry Rundell and mixed by John Mitchell (Alter Bridge, Asia, Snakecharmer) at Outhouse studios.
'Night by Night are without doubt one of the best young bands out there today. Real songs with great riffs and vocal harmonies. Packing the best ot the 80's with a youthful, fresh enthusiasm.' (Rick Savage/Def Leppard)
Henry Rundell ' Lead Vocals (ex Voodoo Six)
Tom Daniel ' Guitars
Ben Christo ' Guitars, Vocals (Sisters Of Mercy)
Jonny Thornton ' Bass, Vocals
Damien Diablo ' Drums
Night by Night areahard rock 5-piece from London who fuse searing riffs with soaring melodies. This cutting-edge quintet combine the best of classic and contemporary rock, charged with 3-part vocal harmonies to create their own sound and the result is a debut of unparalleled strength and musical maturity, with across the board appeal.
Combine the heavyweight riffs and modern crunch of Alterbridge, add the infectious choruses and lush vocal harmonies of Def Leppard for a taste of what Night by Night are all about. The band members each come with their own musical pedigree (The Sisters of Mercy, Voodoo Six) ' and it shows. With flawless production (by Romesh Dodangoda - Funeral For A Friend, The Blackout, Bullet For My Valentine) and irresistible choruses, this is a rare gem of an album with ten strong songs, telling tales of hope and heartbreak.
From the beautifully addictive 'Can't Walk Away' to the hard rocking, 'Siren' and everyone's new favourite song, 'If Only' ' Night by Night are creating musical alchemy.
'If you like hard rock with intensity, melody and meaning, you will find it here. We have real passion for what we are doing and have pushed ourselves to create the best music possible ' no disclaimers, no excuses ' we've worked hard and we are really proud of the result''
Night by Night have toured extensively supporting the likes of Europe, Y&T, Jettblack, Heaven's Basement, Alannah Myles, Acey Slade, The Quireboys, Jayce Lewis,Warrior Soul, Dear Superstar, The Dirty Youth as well as performing storming sets at Hard Rock Hell and Download Festival.
