Blazing Sisters is written, produced, starring and defiled by the Masked Man – the persona that fronts rock n soul band The Presence LDN. Unleashed to the internet this autumn; Blazing Sisters marks a new beginning in the band’s story and signals the build-up towards the release of their debut album California Death Ray – a body of work stylized around the burgeoning Cosplay scene currently breaking out across the globe.

The band’s previous releases; the Ya Ya Pop EP and the limited twelve-inch vinyl Rock/Soul Live received high praise from Record Collector and R2 Mag along with radio support from Frank Skinner on Absolute Radio, BBC Radio 2 and supporters of new and breakthrough artists Amazing Radio.

As on these earlier releases, the track Blazing Sisters also features none other than guitar legend Chris Spedding on six-string axe while Toshi O, originally from Kerrang!’s Best British Newcomers Award nominee’s Slaves To Gravity kicks it hard on bass guitar.

The Blazing Sisters video was shot in LA during the winter break while The Masked Man was visiting the City of Angels on the look out for similar spirits. It was here that he discovered Skyla, a young singer, dancer & actress hanging around Little Tokyo, whilst appearing alongside Zac Efron as his sister in the Firefly TV series.

Produced by Chris Motion video see’s Skyla perform three of her favourite anime characters: Gumi from computer game Vocaloid, Conan from the anime Naruto & finally the cute reindeer Chopper from the anime One Piece.

The Masked Man inhabits a twilight world between fact & fantasy, and it’s from this space that his creativity is pooled. The song writing is mirrored by his tales of slumber led adventure which can be read in full on The Presence LDN website under the section ‘The Mind Adventures of the Masked Man (MAMM)

Live performances are being planned around the album release but for now all output is centred around the website.
