Revamped ALCATRAZZ Release New Single, Video For "Turn of the Wheel" By Larry Petro, News Monkey Thursday, June 10, 2021 @ 9:25 AM
The new album featuring original members Jimmy Waldo and Gary Shea, along with new vocalist Doogie White, drummer Mark Benquechea, and guitarist Joe Stump will be released in the fall of 2021. Pre-order will begin on July 23rd.
""Turn of the Wheel" was the first song we wrote together.” states vocalist Doogie White. “When I heard the riff and the groove, I thought HERE WE GO! From that moment, it was all hands on deck to do the best album we could. "Turn of the Wheel", as a complete RAWK tune works brilliantly.” Doogie continues “we spend so much time wondering about how the mistakes we made yesterday could be made better tomorrow that we forget about today. Today is what we have. Yesterday is gone, and we may not have tomorrow”.
ALCATRAZZ released the following statement in regards to 2021: "We are extremely happy that our good friend Doogie White will be our singer for the 2021 ALCATRAZZ tour dates. We are all fans of Doogie's voice and impressive catalog of music. We promise an explosive live show of the ALCATRAZZ classics that you know, plus some added selections from Doogie's work with RAINBOW and Michael Schenker. We might even have a couple of new songs for you as well! We look forward to seeing all our fans and friends in what we hope is a much-needed return to live music next year! See you all soon...Be safe!" - Jimmy Waldo, Joe Stump, Gary Shea & Mark Benquechea

Formed in 1983, ALCATRAZZ became famous for its blend of melodic and progressive rock and for introducing guitar heroes Yngwie J. Malmsteen and Steve Vai. Emerging in 1983 with No Parole from Rock 'n’ Roll, which featured the hit “Island in the Sun”, the band continued building popularity in 1985 with their sophomore effort, Disturbing the Peace, which contained the hit, “God Blessed Video”. The band issued one more studio LP, 1986’s Dangerous Games, before ceasing operations the following year. The band regrouped and released Born Innocent in 2020, their first studio album containing all-new material since 1986.|
