"DEREK SHERINIAN In Studio With ZAKK WYLDE

SHERINIAN Produces His 5th Solo Album.

HOLLYWOOD, CA (PRWEB) January 13, 2006 -- Famed keyboardist, Derek Sherinian, is in the studio producing yet another masterpiece.

The new untitled work is currently underway in Sherinian's own Beachwood Manor Studios in Burbank, CA. This new album is slated to be released June 2006 worldwide onInsideOut Music in the US & Europe, and Marquee/Avalon in Japan.

After a nine month World Tour with Billy Idol, Sherinian went immediately into the studio. With the immense reception to last year's album Mythology, he decided to bring back several of the available players that made it happen. "This is the 4th solo record of mine that Zakk has played on," explains Sherinian. Zakk is the real deal and I am very fortunate to be able to work with him."

The 2006 all-star line-up is comprised of Zakk Wylde (Black Label Society/Ozzy), John Petrucci (ex-Dream Theater band-mate), Steve Lukather (Toto), Simon Phillips (Toto, The Who, Judas Priest), Tony Franklin (The Firm/Blue Murder), and Brian Tichy (Billy Idol, Ozzy) and other surprise special guests.

Sherinian gained worldwide recognition as a member of Dream Theater from 1994-1999. He has also toured and recorded with Alice Cooper, KISS, and BILLY IDOL among many others."
