Alberta Cross & Band Of Skulls Team Up for New Song “Born In Amazement”
Anglo-Swedish rock band Alberta Cross teamed up with British rock band Band Of Skulls again to release a new song “Born In Amazement” on April 5, 2024 via via Dark Matter / Austral Media and distributed by Kartel Music Group.
This marks the second collaboration between Alberta Cross and Band Of Skulls since the 2023 single “Crooked House”.
The track was written and produced by Marc MacNab-Jack, Petter Ericson Stakee, and Russell Marsden.
They recorded the song at Mizpah Studios in Bath, United Kingdom.
Russell Marsden of Band Of Skulls said, “We were channeling Bowie... And the Boss. Singing until our throats were like razor blades. In a world full of conflict and chaos we try to remember we're born with no hate in our hearts, and look at the world in wonder and amazement. Even if we lose our way, it's worth searching for peace, fighting for love.”- Describing the lyrical themes behind the collaboration, Petter Ericson Stakee of Alberta Cross said, “I love the sleazy upbeat glam feel of this one. Marc Bolan would have been proud. Once again very lush to be creating art with these two dudes. Lyrically I feel like it's bang on where we're at in the world. Too much damn evil and no compassion out there for your fellow humans. This song still feels hopeful though. Let love win. Let love in. I hope we get to play these songs together at a cool festival somewhere soon... They're made for that joyous experience!”

Marc MacNab-Jack, drummer for both bands, added, “Tune two of the Alberta Cross and Band Of Skulls collaboration. This was a fun T-Rex, Bowie, Springsteen inspired mashup. Was super fun to make and felt great in the room with us all! Once again magic happened and we couldn't be happier.” - source : Apple Music
