“Drifting Away” is a very personal release for us.

Created in loving memory of Mum, Geraldine Sharp, £5 from every CD sold will be donated to St Helena Hospice, who provided such outstanding care, compassion and support in her final days. The remaining £2 covers the cost of producing the CDs and card processing fees.

This is more than a traditional release. It is an opportunity to support a charity that means a great deal to our family while helping keep Geraldine's memory alive through music.

Everyone involved in this project gave their time freely to help make it happen, and we are hugely grateful for their support.

If you choose to buy a copy, you will be helping St Helena Hospice continue supporting local families when they need it most.

EP and download of four tracks available now.

The Next Stop is The SKBs' difficult second album - and they've leaned into the challenge.

Following the unexpected but warmly welcomed success of Where This Leads Us, The SKBs return with 11 new tracks that are tighter, more confident and more rock-focused. The core collective is back - songwriter Al Sharp, producer Tom Donovan, vocalist Sara Davey and drummer Leon Cave (Status Quo) - delivering a stronger, more focused set of songs.

There is still plenty of variety and warmth, but the direction feels clearer. The Prying Eye brings a swaggering rock-pop disco pulse, while Sanctuary leans into classic rock territory. For those who loved the gentler moments of the debut, Ronnie from the Train offers a straight-ahead country feel, while Change tips its hat to modern country influences.

Elsewhere, the gloves come off. Crazy Place and the anthemic Ready to Go are full-blooded rock songs built for volume, momentum and the open road.

The Next Stop doesn't try to outdo the debut - it sharpens it. It's the sound of a collective that knows exactly what it is: experienced players, honest songs and no rush to be anything other than real.

Just real people, making music.

Expected release: July 2026

Where This Leads Us is where the story began.

Written by Al Sharp and brought to life by a talented collective of musicians, the debut album introduced The SKBs' blend of honest songwriting, strong melodies and wide-ranging musical influences.

The album features contributions from Leon Cave (Status Quo), Sara Davey (The Swingle Singers and Andrea Bocelli) and Ronnie Miller (Charley Pride).

Available now on CD, vinyl pre-order and download. All physical formats include a digital download.
