Helix recently released its 13th full length studio album, Bastard Of The Blues, to coincide with their 40th Anniversary. The first single,"Even Jesus (Wasn't Loved In His Home Town)", has been issued to Canadian radio.

Last month the band played three successful shows in Spain: Barcelona, Pamplona, and Madrid. One week after returning home they headed for The US, playing "Canadian Invasion Day" in Sioux Falls, South Dakota with fellow Canadian bands Loverboy, April Wine, and Honeymoon Suite. The day, which was Day 1 of Ribfest, broke all previous attendance records with 15,000 people attending that particular day. Helix is off the road for the next little while, with the exception of an appearance at the Scene Music Awards on July 9th.
