In the organizer's words:

What future is there for a band whose members are separated by a distance of over 9000km and who have been unable to perform live for a long time due to the global pandemic, let alone see each other at all?
to perform live, let alone see each other at all? For a long time, RHONDA did not find a good answer to this question, until a ray of hope in the fall of 2021, when international travel was possible again
was possible again and the band spontaneously made their way to Los Angeles to see singer Milo. The spark of inspiration quickly developed into a flame of creativity and it seemed as if the
ten songs on the new album "Forever Yours" wrote themselves. As the saying goes: you can build something beautiful out of stones that are placed in your path.

The success of the album is largely due to the fact that the four remaining members Milo Milone, Ben Schadow, Offer Stock and Gunnar Riedel have succeeded in capturing their exuberant emotions and capturing them in the new material.
and capture them in the new material. You can feel that the music wants something and is full of honesty, it testifies to fear, doubt and anger and equally to joy, friendship and inspiration. "Forever
Yours" is aural proof that there is hope in difficult times and a way out of the one-way street.

The band's sound is still characterized by the tension between soul, pop, film music, punk and rock. What is new is the great dynamic between the songs with very delicate and fragile tones on the one hand, and brute, pounding sounds on the other. In addition, there are surprises that not even RHONDA themselves expected; for example, a song with a reggae feel in 3⁄4 time, or a pop gem inspired by the French band Air with synthesizer sounds and, last but not least, the loud, psychedelic title track with a strong touch of stoner rock.

More than on any previous album, RHONDA were completely at one with themselves during the creation of "Forever Yours", surrendering to the surging inspiration and letting themselves be carried along by the wave. Produced by guitarist Ben Schadow and recorded in Milo Milone's studio, the band dared to be themselves and captured an intimate snapshot in ten of their best songs for all time.
