Don Airey released his latest solo album, "A Light In The Sky", on February 25 via Mascot Records.

For "A Light In The Sky", Airey gathered together a different set of collaborators (though Laurence Cottle of Sting/ Eric Clapton/ Brian Eno/ Bill Bruford fame once again contributes precision bass-playing),though naturally Don provides the record's central creative thrust an entertaining mixture of instrumental and vocal songs, from the "Bladerunner"-style "Ripples In The Fabric Of Time" to the hook-laden hard rock of "Shooting Star".

Airey is reportedly featured on the new MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP (MSG) album, "In the Midst of Beauty", which is due in May.
