JESSE DAMON TO RELEASE 6TH SOLO ALBUM, SOUTHERN HIGHWAY


Silent Rage front man Jesse Damon is set to release his brand new solo album, Southern Highway, on April 22, 2016. Released by On Fire Records, the album was produced by melodic rock legend Paul Sabu. This is Jesse’s sixth solo effort and features 10 brand new studio tracks. As Jesse puts it, “Southern Highway is a melodic driven southern rockin’ hell of a good time!”

Known for his infectious hooks and hard rocking melodic sensibility, Jesse has redefined his sound this time around infusing a southern blues style straight out of Nashville while still maintaining the highest caliber melodic style his fans know and love.

Jesse has built quite a resume with a career that spans over 3 decades. With Silent Rage he released 4 albums including the Simmons Records / RCA Records release Don’t Touch Me There! The album spawned the MTV Headbanger’s Ball favorite Rebel With a Cause. He’s worked quite a bit with Gene Simmons and the KISS camp as well. He received a gold album award for co-writing Thou Shalt Not on the Revenge album. With his band Silent Rage, he performed the music for Reason For Livin’ from the Gene Simmons Sex Money Kiss release. Also with Silent Rage, he plays on the demo version of Domino which was included in the 2001 KISS box set. Along with appearances on soundtracks and appearing as a guest vocalist on several other artists’ releases, throw in 6 solo albums and he’s built up a respectable discography.

2017 will mark the 30th anniversary of Silent Rage’s debut album Shattered Hearts. There have been talks of “doing something special for the fans,” and when those plans have been solidified, they’ll be announced.
