Finnish female-fronted rock sensations Ginger Evil are pleased to unveil their new single and official lyric video “Better Get In Line”, taken from their debut album, “The Way It Burns”, out now via Frontiers Music Srl.
The band described the themes of the new track:
“Better Get In Line” tells everything essential that is wrong in the world and what is wrong with people. We are now witnessing democratic countries taking their first steps towards dictatorships, led by multimillionaires who are blinded by their own greed and needs. People who care about nothing but themselves and their own delusional reality. Can't we prevent this? Everyone needs to make personal choices to ensure that such things do not thrive in any country. Small actions have a big impact when the group is large enough. Do we want to gamble with our future?”
Ginger Evil began as Moonshine Inc. in 2005, in a rehearsal room in Helsinki, Finland. After a couple of years of rehearsal and composing, a fruitless search for a singer meant the songs were put on ice.
Meanwhile, guitarist Tomi Julkunen and bassist Veli Palevaara continued gigging in Finland with The Milestones, including arena shows with Deep Purple and Whitesnake. In the aftermath of their fifth album, those Moonshine Inc. songs from a decade back emerged from hibernation, so the search began again for a vocalist.
The powerful voice of Ella Tepponen was known to Tomi and Veli from many theatre and music projects, and drummer Toni Mustonen was already familiar to everyone. Jamming together found a shared musical passion, and a group creative process soon flourished. Ginger Evil was born.
“From Foo Fighters to Fleetwood Mac”, is how the band hears their music, with singer Ella bringing a whole new kind of twist to their rock expression. Once the band got together and songs were taking shape, on board jumped music producer and film director Richard Stanley, known for his work with The Who and John Lennon, heard demos of Ginger Evil and was inspired to co-write lyrics.
In 2022 Ginger Evil signed a deal with Frontiers Music Srl. (Def Leppard, Lynyrd Skynyrd, TOTO, Whitesnake, Skunk Anansie). Debut album “The Way It Burns” was released on February 14, 2025. Organic and fresh sounding album was something that rock fans had been waiting for since the 90’s; something familiar, something new, something that got their asses shaking once more!
