As typical for Night Ranger, we have all the elements that made us popular in the first place, including twin lead vocal trade-offs with Jack and Kelly and dual guitar harmonies and solos with my new partner in crime, Keri Kelli. We\u2019ve stacked the deck again with up tempo driving rock songs, mid tempo tunes and a few acoustic ballad tracks. We\u2019re hoping this new album will be added to your existing Night Ranger catalog!!!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Don\u2019t Let Up<\/em> was self-produced by the band.<\/p>\n<div class=\"image floatedright\">\n<table width=\"100%\" align=\"center\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metalforcesmagazine.com\/site\/wp-content\/themes\/metalforces\/images\/spacer.gif\" width=\"10\" border=\"0\"><\/td>\n<td>\n<div align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metalforcesmagazine.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/nightranger_dontletupnews.jpg\" height=\"250\" width=\"250\" border=\"0\"><\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" align=\"center\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td>\n<div align=\"left\"><span class=\"smalltext\"><\/span><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<div align=\"right\"><span class=\"smalltext\"><\/span><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>The track listing is as follows:<\/p>\n<p>01. \u2018Somehow Someway\u2019<br \/>\n02. \u2018Running Out Of Time\u2019<br \/>\n03. \u2018Truth\u2019<br \/>\n04. \u2018Day And Night\u2019<br \/>\n05. \u2018Don\u2019t Let Up\u2019<br \/>\n06. \u2018Won\u2019t Be Your Fool Again\u2019<br \/>\n07. \u2018Say What You Want\u2019<br \/>\n08. \u2018We Can Work It Out\u2019<br \/>\n09. \u2018Comfort Me\u2019<br \/>\n10. \u2018Jamie\u2019<br \/>\n11. \u2018Nothing Left Of Yesterday\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Night Ranger\u2019s line-up is as follows:<\/p>\n<p>Jack Blades (vocals and bass)<br \/>\nKelly Keagy (vocals and drums)<br \/>\nBrad Gillis (lead and rhythm guitars)<br \/>\nKeri Kelli (lead and rhythm guitars)<br \/>\nEric Levy (keyboards)<\/p>\n<p>Music videos were also filmed for the tracks \u2018Day And Night\u2019, \u2018Running Out Of Time\u2019 and \u2018Truth\u2019.
