Dennis Churchill Dries - "I" (2015)

2015 release from the hard rock vocalist best known for his work with White Sister and Tattoo Rodeo. The album was produced and mixed by AOR/melodic rock legend Paul Sabu. After the death of his long-time friend and musical co-hort Rick Chadock, Dennis began writing on his own as a form of therapy, and in 2014 was reunited with Sabu, who also supplied the guitar work. DCD drew priceless encouragement from the multi-talented Sabu, whose bands have included Only Child, Silent Rage and Sabu. I is heavily influenced by the music of the late-1970s and '80s, mixing chunky grooves with radio-friendly melodies and drawing influence from DCD's favorite acts, including The Beatles, Bad Company, Journey, Steve Perry, John Waite, Styx and Toto.
