MIKE TRAMP To Permanently Retire WHITE LION

November 21, 2005

According to MelodicRock.com, former WHITE LION frontman Mike Tramp has issued the following statement regarding his future plans for TRAMP'S WHITE LION:

"A series of events has led me to the decision that, in today's day and age, there seems to be not enough interest to continue exploring possibilities for another tour with TRAMP'S WHITE LION. It is a shame that, aside from 30,000 people at this year's Bang Your Head festival, no other European country will see the band. I had put TRAMP'S WHITE LION together for a reason. That reason was giving the fans what they had been asking for all these years. Unfortunately, promoters are not backing this up and no one seems to be confident enough to make a leap of faith to help make this thing happen. This was my final attempt in continuing the legacy of WHITE LION. So from now on, there will be no more looking back at the past, this was the final roar. I will now focus only on my solo career and will take my time finishing my new solo album that will be released sometime next year. I will work on other ways of presenting Mike Tramp live, from intimate acoustic settings to a full band and will be touring whenever it feels right but only when all parameters are in order. Until then, enjoy TRAMP'S WHITE LION 'Rocking the USA' double album out on Frontiers Records now."
