JOURNEY, NIGHT RANGER, Ex-WHITESNAKE/DIO Members Join Forces In New Project

August 13, 2014

Deen Castronovo (JOURNEY, OZZY OSBOURNE, BAD ENGLISH, HARDLINE),Jack Blades (NIGHT RANGER, DAMN YANKEES, SHAW/BLADES) and Doug Aldrich (WHITESNAKE, DIO, BURNING RAIN) have joined forces in a new project which is currently recording its debut album for a 2015 release via Frontiers. The CD, which is being produced by Alessandro Del Vecchio (HARDLINE),will feature Castronovo on lead vocals and drums, Blades on bass and vocals, and Aldrich on guitar.

Aldrich left WHITESNAKE on May 7, explaining in a statement that he "had several recording and live commitments, so [he] needed a more flexible schedule to conclude these before going full force as normal." He added: "Unfortunately, my schedule was not workable."

Aldrich played on the last two WHITESNAKE studio albums, 2008's "Good To Be Bad" and 2011's "Forevermore", and appeared on several live releases, including last year's "Made In Japan" and "Made In Britain/The World Records".

NIGHT RANGER's latest studio album, "High Road", came out on June 10 in North America via Frontiers.

JOURNEY's most recent studio album, "Eclipse", was released in May 2011. The Walmart exclusive debuted on The Billboard 200 album chart at No. 13 — eight spots lower than the band's previous album, 2008's "Revelation" — which also went on to hit No. 1 on Billboard's Top Independent Albums chart.
