“Proud Desperado” is a testament to Winger‘s continued musical excellence. The track features heavy, driving rhythms, impressive vocals, and the intricate guitar work we expect from the band. The new single showcases the band’s technical skill and musical maturity and the video features a dark, smoky performance coupled with interesting, destructive story telling.
The band consists entirely of virtuosos, including Kip Winger, who is a Grammy–nominated musician and composer and who cut his teeth in Alice Cooper‘s band. Reb Beach has played in Dokken, Night Ranger, Alice Cooper, and is a current member of Whitesnake. Paul Taylor has played with everyone from Aldo Nova to the Tom Keifer Band and most recently worked with Mötley Crüe‘s Mick Mars, co–writing Mick‘s solo album. Drummer Rod Morgenstein spent 20 years as a professor teaching percussion at Berklee College of Music, and guitarist John Roth has been a member of Black Oak Arkansas, Giant, and is a current member of Mickey Thomas‘ Starship. With this upcoming album, Winger has proven that their music is more impressive than ever. Seven highlights the band’s musical prowess and continued evolution over the last 35 years.
Seven is now available for preorder on CD/LP/Digital. Additionally, the album’s first single, “Proud Desperado,” is now available for streaming/download on all digital music platforms.
Winger are one of the only bands formed during the late ’80s that still features all original members — Kip Winger, Reb Beach, Rod Morgenstein, and Paul Taylor. Guitarist John Roth was added in 1992. To support the new album, Winger will begin extensive touring beginning with a UK tour with Steel Panther in May, followed by a U.S tour with the Tom Keifer Band in June. Additionally, the band will do a number of headline shows throughout the summer. VIPs are available for all shows at this location.
