As previously reported, UK-born guitarist MARIO PARGA has teamed up with ex-BLACK SABBATH singer Tony Martin

on the new song 'Spirit Of Night', which has been released through MidnightCafe Music. Due to personal circumstances, Tony Martin is unable to appear in the new music video for ’Spirit Of Night’ being filmed in Los Angeles. A video for the song is still going to be made, but has been postponed until September 28th. A second video will be shot at the same time of the original instrumental version of ‘Spirit Of Night’ featuring Mario Parga.

In other news, Parga will start work on the follow up to his 2007 album, Entranced, this November. Further details and tracklisting will be announced soon. The album will contain nine new songs, all written and performed by Mario. The album will be released by MidnightCafe Music during the summer of 2009. Due to Mario’s current busy schedule and the upcoming SAVAGE PARADISE project, the EP Somewhere At The Midnight Cafe has been placed on hold. A song originally intended for the EP called ’Electric Lounge’ featuring several guest musicians will now be included on the new instrumental album scheduled for summer 2009.

Finally, Parga has announced that he is now officially endorsed by Vegas Guitars. Vegas Guitars are based in Las Vegas, NV and the workshops are owned and run by renowned guitar luthier Neil Smith. Mario and Neil have been in lengthy talks and have designed a Mario Parga Signature guitar, a prototype is being built at the moment and will be featured on the main website’s galleries in the near future.

Mario said of Vegas Guitars: “I’ve been on the lookout for a new guitar endorsement for a while, and have recently had an offer from a major manufacturer. But instead of a factory mass-produced guitar, I decided I wanted something more personal and built to my specifications. Vegas Guitars listened to my ideas and luthier Neil Smith and I sat down and planned the guitar from start to finish. I’m very excited about it and I’m looking forward to playing the finished guitar!”

For all enquiries and orders of a Mario Parga Signature guitar, please email Vegas Guitars at info@vegasguitars.com. All Vegas Guitars are handmade and a waiting list will be in place.
