Sweet/Lynch album to be released early 2015

TENTATIVELY scheduled for February 2015 release by Frontiers is the debut album by Sweet/Lynch featuring Stryper frontman Michael Sweet and guitarist George Lynch (T&N, Dokken), bassist James Lomenzo (Megadeth, White Lion) and drummer Brian Tichy (S.U.N., Whitesnake). Sweet told Guitar International about Sweet/Lynch: "It was the brainchild of Serafino Perugino at Frontiers Records. He asked me to basically sing on this record and then I suggested producing it. The musicianship level on this is top notch. It sounds as if we were all in the stuff playing together and we were not. Basically, George wrote some riffs about a minute to a minute and a half long. I wrote lyrics and melodies then arranged them. I cut and pasted them together in the studio. Then Brian and James came out and tracked the drums and bass, as well as some rhythm stuff. We then sent it to George to add the guitars." CR
