Wright has also worked alongside such rock music luminaries as Alice Cooper, Greg Allman, Ted Nugent, various members of Guns N\u2019 Roses and Kiss to name a few, and now embarks on his first-ever solo excursion.\u00a0<br><br>The first single is a hard-rocking, intense interpretation of Bj\u00f6rk\u2019s 1995 hit \u201cArmy of Me\u201d and is accompanied by a video that represents Wright\u2019s exploration into disorder and parallels with the\u00a0recent chaotic state of world affairs. The visuals include a 3D animation of an \u201carmy\u201d of Ruth Bader Ginsburgs, the late Supreme Court Justice, feminist icon, and steadfast advocate for women\u2019s rights and gender equality.\u00a0<em>\u201cI chose to recognize the late Justice Ginsburg in this video as she was such a formidable presence on and off the bench. She challenged the status quo knocking down legal obstacles to women\u2019s equality and inspired an army of believers.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><br><br>The track \u201cArmy Of Me\u201d features several of Wright\u2019s musical peers including the late Pat Torpey (Mr. Big) on drums, guitarist Lanny Cordola (House of Lords), and Sven Martin (Jonathan Davis Band) on keyboards along with songstress Whitney Tai, the recent \u201cBest Vocalist\u201d winner at The Intercontinental Music Awards.\u00a0<br><br><strong>Watch the video:<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/BeORufRPfVo\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/BeORufRPfVo<\/a>(Mixed by Tim Janssens)<br><strong>Stream\/download the single:<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/orcd.co\/chuck_wrights_sheltering_sky_army_of_me\">https:\/\/orcd.co\/chuck_wrights_sheltering_sky_army_of_me<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The full-length album from&nbsp;<em>Chuck Wright&#8217;s Sheltering Sky<\/em>, coming in 2022, features over 30 guest performers including members of Mr. Big, Skid Row, Tesla, Dream Theater, Great White, Asia, Jefferson Starship,&nbsp;acclaimed solo artists Allen Hinds, Toshi Yanagi, and many others. Wright is finally stepping out on his own with a wide range of genres, from Jazz Fusion, Prog, Funk to in-your-face Hard Rock, which was in itself one of the things that led him to want to forge his own way and create this unique collection of songs within his \u201cSheltering Sky\u201d project.<br><strong>Photos:<\/strong>Top photo: Mari&nbsp;KawaguchiBottom photo: Tim Janssens<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>For more information:\u00a0<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.chuckwright.com\/\">www.chuckwright.com<\/a>\u00a0<br>Facebook:\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ChuckWrightOfficial\">www.facebook.com\/ChuckWrightOfficial<\/a><br>Instagram: @chuckwrightbass<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Long-time bassist for multi-platinum rockers Quiet Riot, Chuck Wright, proudly presents the release of the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16325,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23,2],"tags":[1978,317,1977],"class_list":["post-16324","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music-news","category-news","tag-chuck-wright","tag-hard-rock","tag-quiet-riot"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16324","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16324"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16324\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16326,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16324\/revisions\/16326"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16325"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16324"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16324"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16324"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
