LEATHERWOLF vocalist/guitarist Michael Olivieri has booked a CD-release party for his newly released solo album, "Goodbye Rain", at the Galaxy theatre in Santa Ana, California on May 7. Joining him on stage will be THE M.O.B., a 10-piece band featuring the following musicians:

"Goodbye Rain", which was released in December of 2009 and produced by Olivieri and Forcone, takes a new direction than Michael's previous work with LEATHERWOLF. Olivieri states, "After the latest LEATHERWOLF album, 'New World Asylum', which is the heaviest of all LEATHERWOLF releases, I felt I needed to get back to the roots of where I came from musically. 'New World Asylum' was a great record for us, but I felt that I left a major part of me out of that equation. 'Goodbye Rain', like it or leave it, is musically what I'm really all about."

Michael's latest video, "Apologies", can be viewed below.
