Queensryche founding guitarist Michael "Whip" Wilton along with powerhouse Seattle vocalist Mark Winterman, drummer Sonny Sudra and bassist "Hodgy", present his new solo album; WHIP "Volume 1", which offers nine all new power packed songs reminiscent of the sound that Michael is best known for. Mixed and mastered by renowned east coast producer Chris "Zuess" Harris (Queensryche, Rob Zombie, Shadows Fall), WHIP Volume 1 captures Michael's ability to think outside the box with flavorful riffs, catchy melodies and thoughtful solos while still maintaining his signature sound. From the opening chords of "People Suffer" to the closing track "Drowning at Daybreak", it is clear that Michael Wilton's trademark style lays the bedrock for this well-crafted offering.
