BLACK LABEL SOCIETY Introduce New Rhythm Guitarist
January 1, 2014, 11 years ago
In December, BLACK LABEL SOCIETY amicably parted ways with longtime guitarist Nick Catanese, and now ZAKK WYLDE has announced Nick's replacement:
"Please welcome Dario Lorina as the new rhythm guitar player for BLS!"Touring for over a span of seven years since age 16, first with late WARRANT singer JANI LANE, and in more recent years with LIZZY BORDEN, metal guitar virtuoso Dario Lorina delivered his self-titled instrumental solo album in September 2013 via Shrapnel Records.
Next month Zakk Wylde will embark upon a 13-city solo tour across Canada, featuring intimate versions of some of Black Label Society's most popular songs, as well as tunes from Wylde's best-selling solo album Book Of Shadows, and Southern rock band PRIDE & GLORY.
"This is a special thank you to the Canadian fans for making 'Ain't No Sunshine' top 20 - Top 20 people!" said Wylde. "I love Canada! They always welcome BLS and are so supportive. To do a more intimate, stripped down show, especially in cities where you're so embraced - is just the ultimate. You can take a song that you've played thousands of times, rearrange it and suddenly its something totally fresh and new. Acoustically, the songs are just as powerful and heartfelt. Even transposing them and performing them on piano, they are no less raw and familiar."Tour dates:
