Croatia's ANIMAL DRIVE Signs With FRONTIERS MUSIC SRL
June 14, 2017Frontiers Music Srl has signed a deal with ANIMAL DRIVE, a young and driven hard rock act founded in Zagreb, Croatia in 2012 by singer Dino Jelusic, who is the primary writer and driving force behind the band's sound. Dino was chosen by the late, great Paul O'Neill to be a featured vocalist on TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA's most recent U.S. tour. ANIMAL DRIVE's lineup is completed by guitarists Ivan Keller and Alen Luke (who unleash a ferocious twin guitar attack on the listener),Damjan Milekovic on bass and Adrian Boric on drums.
Influenced by legendary bands such as WHITESNAKE and SKID ROW with progressive rock and metal elements from DREAM THEATER thrown in the mix, ANIMAL DRIVE takes the listeners on a wild ride of hard rock bombast.
Dino says: "I am more than delighted and excited to be part of Frontiers' machine, the label that ANIMAL DRIVE's music can relate to in so many aspects, from classic rock, progressive metal, heavy metal, hard rock... Our music contains everything that Frontiers holds right now, and some of the bands that are our biggest influences are signed to the label, which makes us even more excited. Can't wait to share material we have been working on for almost a year now, and can't wait to kick ass!"
ANIMAL DRIVE's debut album is expected to be released in late 2017 or early 2018, with a tour to follow.
