MIKE TRAMP, legendary White Lion singer, songwriter and front man stepped out on his own in 1995 and began his 29-year solo career. With twelve consistent solo albums to his name, you can easily say that he has stood his ground. Tramp has never steered off his path and is charging forward with confidence, and no desire to look back. The album, titled “Mike Tramp – Songs of White Lion” was released in April 2023 to rave reviews, with many saying how fresh and today the songs sounded. Some even said it sounded like a brand-new album. Tramp states, “It’s both challenging and a joy for me. Still, the truth is that people don’t know that most of these big rock songs started out as folk songs in a Brooklyn, NY basement.” Which is the true secret to why they still work on stage. You can’t keep a good song down. Hear your favorites including “When The Children Cry”, “Little Fighter”, “Broken Heart”, “Wait” and so many more!
