Bobbie Dazzle, the catsuit-sporting queen of UK Glam Rock, is proud to announce her second album, “Star Power,” set for release on October 2nd via Rise Above Records. The flamboyant singer, songwriter, flautist and producer arrived without warning in late 2024 with “Fandabidozi,” one of that year’s most irresistible introductory statements. Reviewers drooled and fans reacted with disbelieving joy when Bobbie and her band proceeded to take the songs from “Fandabidozi” out on the road.
Since the release of her debut, Bobbie Dazzle has rapidly established herself as one of the most distinctive new voices in UK Glam Rock, sharing stages with legendary artists including Alice Cooper, Sweet, Lita Ford and Thunder’s Luke Morley, as well as appearing at London’s Hyde Park with Jeff Lynne’s ELO. Along the way, the artist born Siân Greenaway has transformed her flamboyant alter ego into a fully realized musical world built on infectious melodies, theatricality, dazzling musicianship and unapologetic fun.
Now, Bobbie Dazzle channels that whirlwind experience into ‘Star Power,’ an album that expands upon the sonic and visual identity established on “Fandabidozi” while introducing a little more grit and bite. The eleven-song collection was overwhelmingly written by Bobbie and keyboardist Chris Dando and was recorded in the same studio as her debut, creating a natural connection between the two records.
Pre-Orders Coming Soon.

“Star Power” features several notable collaborations. Former Runaways guitarist Lita Ford contributes a blazing guitar solo to the closing track, “Feel It Too,” while Pendulum’s Gareth McGrillen co-wrote and plays bass on “Snakes And Ladders,” bringing an unexpected connection between Bobbie’s Glam Rock world and the electronic intensity of drum & bass.
Throughout “Star Power,” Bobbie’s love of Classic Rock, Glam, Progressive Rock and Theatrical songwriting remains at the forefront. The album’s opening title-track picks up where “Fandabidozi” left off, while songs such as “Jack Rabbit” showcase her willingness to embrace the grand, elaborate arrangements of her influences. Her signature flute playing also remains an integral part of the sound, adding another dimension to an album that refuses to be confined to a single era or genre.
Chris Dando once again plays a key role in shaping the Bobbie Dazzle sound, particularly through his intricate stacked vocal harmonies, while guitarist Ash Baker and bassist Leon Smith, both members of her live band, contribute throughout the record and to its production.
At its core, “Star Power” is an album about joy, escapism and the power of music to provide a world away from everyday struggles.
