Adrian Vandenberg's prolific career, spanning iconic bands and solo projects, has shaped his musical journey. Exploding out of The Netherlands and onto the global scene with 1982’s self-titled Vandenberg, the Dutch phenomenon notched an international hit in the form of “Burning Heart,” paving the way for seminal releases such as Heading For A Storm [1983] and Alibi [1985]. The band canvased the United States, Europe, and Japan alongside Ozzy Osbourne, Kiss, Rush, Scorpions, Michael Schenker, and many others. Sought out to join Whitesnake, Adrian famously ripped the legendary lead on the 1987 recording of the #1 smash “Here I Go Again,” which adorned the 8x-platinum Whitesnake and ended up touring the world’s largest arenas for a year-and-a-half when the 1987 album went through the roof in terms of sales. He co-wrote the entirety of 1989’s platinum Slip of the Tongue and spent the ensuing tour sharing axe duties with none other than Steve Vai. In addition to playing guitar on and cowriting Restless Heart from David Coverdale & Whitesnake, he performed hundreds of shows as part of the band for some twelve years.
Vandenberg and Mascot Records are thrilled to announce the global release of their new studio album "SIN" on August 25. The album "SIN" captures the essence of Vandenberg's evolution, recorded in Holland and Los Angeles. The album's scorching single "House On Fire" showcases the fusion of foot-tapping groove and darker lyrical undertones.
The complete track listing includes a compelling array of songs, available in Green LP, CD, and Digital formats. Adrian Vandenberg and the band look forward to sharing their vibrant music with fans, creating a sonic journey that resonates with listeners worldwide. Vandenberg's "SIN" promises to be a vibrant and dynamic addition to their legendary discography.
