Long Shadows Dawn (Doogie White & Emil Norberg) - "Deal With The Preacher"
Ο Doogie White έγινε γνωστός στο ευρύ μουσικόφιλο κοινό λόγω των φωνητικών του στον δίσκο των Rainbow "Stranger In Us All" (1995). Επίσης έχει τραγουδήσει σε Yngwie Malmsteen ("Attack!!", "Unleash the Fury"), Michael Schenker, Praying Mantis, Tank, Alcatrazz, Cornerstone κλπ.
Ο Emil Norberg είναι Σουηδός κιθαρίστας. Τον ακούμε στους δίσκους των Persuader (στους οποίους πλέον έχει αναλάβει και το μπάσο εκτός από την κιθάρα), ενώ διετέλεσε μέλος των Savage Circus για μία δεκαετία.
Επίσης συμμετείχε (ως guest) και σε έναν δίσκο των Nocturnal Rites ("Grand Illusion" 2005) και των Assailant ("Nemesis Within" 2006). Οι δύο μουσικοί ένωσαν πέρυσι τις δυνάμεις τους δημιουργώντας τους Long Shadows Dawn. Το ντεμπούτο τους φέρει τον τίτλο "Isle Of Wrath" και κυκλοφορεί ήδη...
Δελτίο τύπου: «Long Shadows Dawn is a new musical alliance featuring Scottish vocalist Doogie White (Rainbow, Michael Schenker Fest) together with Swedish guitarist Emil Norberg (Persuader). The band’s debut album, "Isle Of Wrath" will be released on August 6, 2021.
Doogie and Emil have crafted an amazing hard rock record which invokes memories of the classic ‘80s era, but think more what the well loved ‘70s bands were doing in that era versus the bands that had just been introduced to the public eye then. In other words, classic rock influences which lead to a timeless hard rock vibe.
Serafino Perugino, President of Frontiers Records, had a vision of hearing Doogie sing songs in the style of Rainbow, like Doogie actually did with the band for a few years, and pairing him with Emil, a lifelong Rainbow fan, seemed only logical.
"As a big fan of the line of heritage from Deep Purple to Rainbow onwards to what Yngwie Malmsteen explored with that basic sound, I tried to tap into what made me love those albums growing up. Although impossible to copy, I took a shot at making my own interpretation of the sound of what I think are the best rock albums to date in my opinion," says Emil Norberg.
"I think working on this first Long Shadows Dawn album, something new and exciting, helped me get through the lockdown pretty much unscathed. Emil and I had no fixed plan other than to write killer tunes. We went out on a musical limb on some songs taking a bold view of the future and respectfully pulling from the well of the past. Lyrically it needed to be dark, but hopeful. Sad, but uplifting. I think we managed that. I hope it touches people’s spirits," says Doogie White.
Scottish singer Doogie White first came to prominence when he was asked to audition for the legendary Rainbow, subsequently joining the band in 1994 and releasing the album “Stranger In Us All”. Since then, he has worked with Cornerstone (a band he put together with former Royal Hunt member Steen Mogesen), Yngwie Malmesteen’s Rising Force, Tank, and, more recently, Michael Schenker Fest and Alcatrazz.
His vocal range is rich and distinctive and he is certainly one of the great rock vocalists of his generation. Emil Norberg cut his teeth playing very aggressive power metal and building the band Persuader, who have released five critically acclaimed albums from 2000 to 2020.
Long Shadows Dawn is Norberg’s first foray into production outside of Persuader and channels his instinctive Blackmore influences, which he has been developing steadily during the years. An absolute gem of an album has been born in Long Shadows Dawn's "Isle Of Wrath" with the pairing of these two talents.»
