Details:
New Jersey theatrical hard rock band Phantom''s Opera have an exceedingly rich history. Keyboard player Jack Young having first founded the band with Alec John Such (Bon Jovi) in 1969 at the age of 13! The original line-up of the band featured Alec John Such on bass and Tico Torres (Bon Jovi) on drums. Dean Fasano was a former vocalist with the band before he joined Message (with Richie Sambora) and Prophet (later replaced by Russel Arcara (Arcara).
In 1989, along comes another young rocker from Sayreville named Colie Brice who invites Jack to join Gemini - Colie''s first band that was slugging it out on the NJ metal scene in the late 80''s. Along with Brice, former Gemini guitarist Eric Walz switched to bass, allowing guitar demon Michael Romeo (Symphony X) room to shred, and NJ drum hero Bob Nelson room to pound on the group''s debut album that been released in 36 different countries on four different labels to date. After Mike Romeo left to form Symphony X, guitarist Karl Cochran (Ace Frehley''s band, Arcara, Joe Lynn Turner, Eric Singer, Bob Daisley, Corky Lang, and John Corabi. Far Cry) played on the group''s sophomore releases entitle "So Long To Broadway". Then Bobby Gilmartin (Mystery Bloom, New Machine) joined Phantom''s Opera for the recording of their third album ''Following Dreams'' - produced by Steve Evetts & mastered by GRAMMY winner Joe Palmaccio. In 1998 Colie Brice and Bob Nelson left the group.
During March of 2003, after trying to replace Colie Brice for nearly five years Phantom''s Operaannounced their new vocalist as being Terry Brock, a singer of high repute citing credits with Kansas, Michael Bolton and Strangeways. A new studio album, ''Act IV'', was released in 2003 through Escape Music. Meantime members Bob Gilmartin and Dave Garcia recorded a debut album New Machine on a new label founded by Colie Brice called Aeria Records. Talk about drama...
