Shakra: Lyric video for “Burning Heart” released

The Swiss hard rock band Shakra has released a new single, entitled “Burning Heart“, along with a lyric video. You can check out the video below:

The quintet around frontman Mark Fox comments on the new single release as follows:

“Sometimes life writes the best stories – or loses them. ‘Burning Heart’ was written during the Invincible sessions – and then it was gone. Lost in digital nirvana. Now – in the middle of preparing for our 30th anniversary – we’ve found it again. Unexpected, but full of energy! And now it’s time for it to never be lost again – but finally see the light of day.”

– Shakra

Shakra guitarist Thomas Muster adds:

“Burning Heart, to me, is a picture of that inner fire that drives you. When you burn for something, you don’t do it for fame or success – you do it because it’s part of who you are.”

– Thomas Muster

And Mark Fox adds:

“All my life, people have tried in different ways to separate me from what I do with all my heart and soul: making music. But no one has succeeded – and no one ever will.”

– Mark Fox

After “Angels Landing“, “Burning Heart” marks the second release independent of Shakra‘s current studio album “Invincible” which was released on 9 June 2023 via AFM Records. “Invincible” is the 13th studio album by the Swiss hard rockers. Throughout 2025, Shakra will tour Europe to celebrate their 30th anniversary as a band. The tour dates can be seen below. Tickets and further information can be found on Shakra‘s website.
