Rainforce in Malta – the 5-string acoustic session, part 3: There is a much more famous Malta-Switzerland Connection than Rainforce. Swiss rockers Krokus and their leadsinger Marc Storace, originally from Malta, are not less than living legends! This is just a small tribute, done by Jordan Cutajar & Andy La Morte in the dignified halls of Nomad Son & Frenzy Mono. Have fun! The video can be watched below.
Rainforce is a brand new hard rock project founded by guitarist and songwriter Andy La Morte (formerly involved in bands like Pylon, Disobedience & Thankful Heart) in conspiracy with his brother in crime, Matt Brand, the mastermind of Swiss doomsters Pÿlon himself, as the bass player and co-producer. They are joined by South Germany’s finest drummer, Benjamin Mann (Power of God). Although he is an absolute prog metal freak, he crossed the river Rhine to get this Swiss engine running. The lead vocals are handled by Maltese singer Jordan Cutajar (Nomad Son & others, including a stint in Pÿlon) whose voice is as unique as it is variable, which makes him the perfect singer for Rainforce.
These four guys are joined by some friends and companions. The debut album is set to feature quite the entourage of musical guests, including Whitecross guitarist Rex Carroll, Barren Cross bassist Jim La Verde, X-Sinner and GX Project singer Rex Scott and Canadian singer Kevin Wright formerly of Jacob’s Dream.
Rainforce debut album “Lion’s Den” has been released on April 14th. through Roxx Records.
