DOOGIE WHITE To Play Solo Show In Athens

November 15, 2008

Vocalist Doogie White (CORNERSTONE, ex-YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, RAINBOW) is heading off to Athens, Greece for a solo show at Texas Necropolis (formerly Underworld Club) on Friday, December 5. He will perform songs from his time in RAINBOW, CORNERSTONE and EMPIRE as well as a couple of favorites from IRON MAIDEN and DEEP PURPLE.

Commented Doogie: "I am really excited to be doing this show. I have never been to Greece before but have many 'friends' there. I wanted to keep it exclusivley to material that I had written or contributed to but the promoter asked if I would do some covers. So I picked a couple that I hope that the metalheads in Athens will want to hear me sing."

Upon his return from Greece, Doogie will fly to Frankfurt, Germany to record vocals from the English-language version of the brand new album from RATA BLANCA, the multi-million-selling Argentine band led by guitarist Walter Giardino.

Stated Dogie: "Walter and I have known each other for years and he is truly an inspirational guitarist. We have been trying to find some musical adventure to do together and this popped up. So I will be in Germany for the first time in a long time to record."

Before heading off to Greece, Doogie will play two shows with DEEP PURPLE tribute act DEMON'S EYE:

Nov. 28 - Spirit Of 66 - Verviers, Belgium
Nov. 29 - Blues Garage - Hannover-Isernhagen, Germany

DEMON'S EYE has previously played shows with DEEP PURPLE's Ian Paice guesting on drums.
