QUIET RIOT // MIKE TRAMP’S WHITE LION

QUIET RIOT is a rock & roll phenomenon. Famously described as the first heavy metal band to top the pop chart at #1 on Billboard magazine, the Los Angeles quartet became an overnight sensation thanks to their monster 1983 smash album “Metal Health”. QUIET RIOT first signed a record deal with Pasha records in the dawn of the 80’s at a time when radio was dominated by the “new wave” sound. Their hard driving pop metal sound was deemed “out” by record labels so the debut album “Metal Health” was against the grain. Driven by the irresistible double whammy of the rendition of the old Slade chestnut “Cum on Feel the Noize,” and their original song “Metal Health” (Bang your head) the album stormed up the U.S. charts, duly reaching the number one spot and going platinum five times over in the process. Against all odds it jumped over Michael Jackson’s “Thriller and “Synchronicity” by The Police to land in the number one slot on the Billboard album chart. This opened the door for the other Sunset Strip “Hair Metal” bands to get their record deals and kicked off the craze that dominated MTV and radio in the 80’s. The sales of the “Metal Health” album have now well exceeded the 10 million mark worldwide. Quiet Riot went on to have other hits and over a dozen albums and still plays live with a line up consisting of Rudy Sarzo, Alex Grossi, Jizzy Pearl and Johnny Kelly. Performing the Hits: “CUM ON FEEL THE NOIZE,” “BANG YOUR HEAD (METAL HEALTH),” “MAMA WEER ALL CRAZEE NOW,” “SLICK BLACK CADILLAC” and so may more!

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!
