April 14, 2016, 8 years ago
Four By Fate will release their debut album, Relentless, on June 3rd via Amazing Record Co. in Europe. The album will be available in the America's via The End Records on the same date.
When the mysterious power of fate helped four rock and roll veterans join forces the result was electrifying. A supergroup of four industry titans, Four By Fate’s lineup consists of: John Regan, Tod Howarth, Rob Affuso and Patrick James Gasperini.
The seeds for the band’s formation were planted in 1986 when John Regan and Tod Howarth were on tour together; Regan playing bass with John Waite and Howarth singing and playing keyboards with Cheap Trick. The tour brought the pair together as friends and musicians, and many months later Regan asked Howarth to join him in Frehley’s Comet, a band fronted by Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductee, the legendary KISS guitarist/singer Ace Frehley.
Fast forward to 2014 and Regan and Howarth join forces again on a new project – Four By Fate. Enter Pat Gasperini, a New York guitarist/singer and prolific songwriter. With a solid east coast resume he adds ripping guitar hero presence and big tunes. Shortly after, the band invite powerhouse percussionist Rob Affuso (Skid Row) to complete the final foursome.
Adding further rock pedigree, other contributors to the Four By Fate story include Stet Howland (drummer for W.A.S.P.), Sean Kelly (guitarist for Helix and Nelly Furtado) and AJ Pero (drummer from Twisted Sister) recorded six tracks on the album before he tragically passed away in early 2015 – this is thought to be his last recording.
Amazing Record Co. CEO Paul Campbell had this to say about the new signing: “We’re privileged to welcome Four By Fate to the Amazing Family. It’s a rare occurrence when a band with such a strong rock pedigree get together to create an album which is of such a high standard. We look forward to sharing well deserved worldwide success with the guys during the coming months.”
