In a big year which has seen him produce and co-write the hit album New Horizon by rockers THE ANSWER, TOBY JEPSON (DIO DISCIPLES, ex-LITTLE ANGELS, FASTWAY) returns new mini-album is out now via Townsend Records. Raising My Own Hell sees the frontman retain his rock sensibilites with an acoustic edge and a brilliant live vibe that captures the essence of Toby Jepson in 2013.

“Raising My Own Hell is the result of getting older and hopefully a bit wiser. It's perhaps closer to my own kind of truth, my own kind of anger, my own kind of love. It's unkempt, lumpy, brash, shouty and angry but it's also tender, sympathetic and questioning, so I hope the balance is about right...I am a libran after all. I've simply gathered six tunes I liked and done the best I could with them in the time available with some cool friends who were generous enough to indulge me for a short while.”

'Shadow Boxing', which is taken from the new album, is now available as a free download here.

“I'm giving away the last, and probably weirdest song from the collection, 'Shadow Boxing' as a taster. It was fun recording it and is primarily about the difficulty of facing ones self; the fight we all have inside ourselves to know who we are, and the difficulties of owning up to our mistakes...it's also about fighting back, not taking everything at face value, being a maverick, raising my own kind of hell...enjoy it if you can.”
