DANGER ANGEL
THE BAND
Danger Angel is a hard rock band from Athens, Greece. The band was formed in 2006 by Ethan Chionos (guitars) and Spiros Foussekis (guitars), both members of several small, local bands and private projects since the early nineties. Mike Kasidakis is referenced as the original singer and was replaced by Jimmy Cage in 2008 (left 2010), while Antonis Venieris (drums) and Rudy Rallis (bass) joined up in 2008 too. George AHAS Lignos took over the keyboards spot a while earlier in 2007, while vocalist M.T. (vocals) joined the band in 2010, replacing Jimmy Cage. The band agreed on a worldwide deal with American label Perris Records in August, 2009 and released their debut album in January 2010.
Members come from different backgrounds, Chionos (guitars) and Rallis (bass) being former members of rock, hard rock and heavy metal bands like Sacrament, Vertigo and Delivers Of Rock, while Lignos (keyboards) came from a more funk-RnB oriented background, also being a founding member of the Christian Rock band "the Floks", with whom he released two albums "No Matter What" (2003) and "Ystati Katharotita (tr. Ultimate Purity)" (2009). He was also the keyboards player for the Greek pop-rock band Nekyia (Warner Music) with whom he released an album titled "I Ekdikisi Tis Siopis (tr. Revenge Of Silence)" (2009). His side project "Mamacita On Fire" is a band of a more Rock-RnB style and are now (2011) in the process of preparing their new album. Lignos, is a certified keyboards, piano and jazz theory professor and also plays the trumpet. Ahas is also responsible for the Administration, Management and Maintenance departments of the "Anagennisi" (tr. Renaissance) Conservatory in Athens, Grece. Tony Venieris (drums) was a former member of Silver R.I.S.C. in the early nineties, released an album in 1992, titled "Anything She Does". Tony has been a sought after session drummer ever since. Vocalist M.T. (a.k.a. Minas Tsigos), before joining Danger Angel, was a professional Club singer, performing at several Athens rock stages since 2005.
THE ALBUM
The debut Danger Angel album was recorded in Athens, Greece, during the period between 2008 and 2009. The band had to make several new music arrangements and re-record all vocals due to original singer Mike Kasidakis being replaced by Jimmy Cage within 2008. During the later part of recordings, the band secured the contribution of the legendary American hard rock and heavy metal singer Jeff Scott Soto, who participated in the album by performing the vocals for "Never Let You Go". The song was not included in the original track-list, yet it was added after the band came to terms with Soto, during June, 2009 to contribute vocals for this song. Further guests in the album are former Firewind and Helloween drummer Mark Cross on "Runaway Angel" and Greek singer Peggy Zarou (Peggy's Lillies) contributing additional vocals on "Till The End Of Time". In January 2010, Danger Angel released their LP, titled Danger Angel, under Houston based Perris Records.
The album was released January 12, 2010 in Greece and February 5, 2010 internationally.

Danger Angel are currently in the studio recording their new album under the direction of Jeff Scott Soto and John Ellis of Prism Studios, MA.
