American metal vocalist Tim 'Ripper' Owens (Beyond Fear, ex-Judas Priest, ex-Iced Earth) is set to surprise the public with the release of his first solo album, PLAY MY GAME. The offering consists of around a dozen brand-new tracks that Owens composed himself or together with renowned friends. The list of guest musicians featured on Owens solo debut is really spectacular: along with Bob Kulick and Chris Caffery (Savatage, Trans-Siberian Orchestra) and some others, he was supported by the guitarists Doug Aldrich (Whitesnake), Michael Wilton (Queensryche), Jeff Loomis (Nevermore), Steve Stevens (Billy Idol), bassists Marco Mendoza (ex-Whitesnake), Billy Sheehan (Mr Big, ex-David Lee Roth), Dave Ellefson (ex-Megadeth), Rudy Sarzo (Dio, ex-Ozzy Osbourne, ex-Quiet Riot), James Lomenzo (Megadeth), Tony Franklin (ex-Blue Murder), Dennis Hayes (Beyond Fear) and drummers Simon Wright (ex-AC/DC, Dio), Vinny Appice (Heaven & Hell), Ray Luzier (Korn), Bobby Jarzombek (Riot, ex-Halford), and Brett Chassen. Tim "Ripper" Owens has never sounded more impressive, melodic and multi-faceted!
