CHRIS CAFFERY Signs With METAL HEAVEN RECORDS

January 24, 2007

SAVATAGE/TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA guitarist Chris Caffery has inked a solo deal with Metal Heaven Records. His new album, "Pins & Needles", will be released later in the year.

"Pins & Needles" track listing:

01. Pins & Needles
02. Sixty-Six
03. Torment
04. Walls
05. YGBFKM
06. Sad
07. Chained
08. Worms
09. Crossed
10. The Time
11. Metal East
12. Qualdio
13. The Temple
14. Once Upon A Time (bonus track)

The follow-up to 2004's "Faces" and 2005's collection of bonus tracks and new compositions, "W.A.R.P.E.D.", was originally scheduled to be released through Greece's Black Lotus Records, but after the company closed its doors last year, Caffery was forced to seek a new label home.

According to a press release, "Pins & Needles" features a "more powerful, aggressive, experimental and focused attack that is sure to catch the ears of any metal fan." The album was produced by Caffery together with Nik Chinboukas at Nik's Hot Tracks Studio, Spin Studios and Happy Beaver Studios, Astoria, NY.

Caffery's band consists of Paul Morris (RAINBOW, DORO) on keyboards, Nick Douglas (DORO) on bass guitar, Jeff Plate (SAVATAGE, METAL CHURCH) and Yael (MY RUIN, FIREBALL MINISTRY) on drums as well as Dave Z on bass guitars.

Chris Caffery will be teaming up with STRATOVARIUS singer Timo Kotipelto for a European tour beginning on February 16 in Budapest, Hungary. The two artists will also share the stage at the Pestpop festival in Wieze, Belgium on April 21.
