Trevor Rabin discusses his new solo album "RIO" and more!
Episode 215

Episode # 215 - Trevor Rabin discusses his new solo album "RIO" and more!
Trevor Rabin, the South African guitarist, singer, multi-musician, writer and producer, recently announced âRioâ, his first solo album of vocal material in 34 years, set for release in just a weekâs time on the 6th October 2023 worldwide.
Given that his previous vocal-led solo album, âCanât Look Awayâ, was released in 1989 (2012âs âJacarandaâ was all-instrumental), Rabin has kept us waiting for more than three decades for a follow-up. Trevor admits that there was pressure from all sides, including his own family, to have speeded up the process. However, the delay is excusable. Since leaving Yes following the âTalkâ album in 1994 and largely as a prequel to touring as part of ARW in 2016, the guitarist entered the time-consuming world of movie soundtracks. Not just any old movies, either. Trevorâs name appears as composer for such blockbusters as Con Air, Armageddon, Remember the Titans, Enemy Of The State, Deep Blue Sea, Glory Road, and Gone In 60 Seconds and both National Treasure movies, amongst many others. âOver the past ten years I was having ideas, concepts that I couldnât implement due to my busy schedule,â he explains, adding: âTo be honest, those years flew by in a flurry. I knew that this was the time, and once I found my momentum I worked on the album 24/7.â
The process proved a labour of love and as with his first and second solo records, âTrevor Rabinâ and âFace To Faceâ (from 1977 and â79 respectively), Rabin handled just about all of the instruments himself.
Stylistically, âRioââ is tough to categorise. Besides guitar-driven rock-meets-pop, âGoodbyeâ is Country & Western with an edgy drive, while âTumbleweedâ begins in a burst of harmonies. No wonder its working title was âThe Demographic Nightmareâ.
âI wanted to get into many different areas,â Rabin states. âOf course there are âprog thingsâ, but overall there are a lot of styles going on.â
As mentioned, Trevor plays the majority of the instruments on the record. However, on drums for a number of tracks is Lou Molino, while Trevor also contributes some drums and percussion. Vinnie Colaiuta provides drums on âPushâ, and Rabinâs son Ryan Rabin helped out with some of the most important percussive arrangements. Along the way Trevor also drafted in a couple of friends, Dante Marchi and Liz Constantine, to sing back up on two songs, as well as Charlie Bisharat on violin.

Rocker Mitch Malloy releases New Solo Album "The Last Song," his time in Van Halen and much more!
MITCH MALLOY RETURNS WITH NEW SOLO ALBUM, âTHE LAST SONGâ FROM SING MARKET
Mitch Malloy continues to rock the night away burning the midnight oil! After several years as the frontman for the iconic rock band Great White, Mitch returned to the studio writing and recording his new album, âTHE LAST SONG.â The album will launch with an exclusive, limited release collectorâs edition vinyl through a partnership with SING. Pre-sales for the vinyl release will go on sale May 3, 2023. An international release will follow in June.
Once again, Mitch is undertaking an album solely by himself from start to finish â song writing, producing, instruments, mixing and mastering. Mitch reveals, âFor this record, I have really taken my time. In the past, Iâve usually been on deadlines. With this album, there was so much material in my head from a few years of not having a true creative outlet, so it was a lot to process. Iâm thankful that I have been in a position to not rush my creativity. Iâve been tucked away in my Zen zone writing and recording... and amassing lots of new gear! Ha!â
âTHE LAST SONGâ DELUXE PACKAGE will be released worldwide first on SING Market as a limited edition collectible 180 gram signed and numbered white vinyl record. This special vinyl bundle includes a signed CD, large poster, 8" X 10" photo, and more. All of this is attached to a limited, numbered and registered digital collectable bundle packed with behind-the-scenes videos, acoustic videos, a rare handwritten lyric sheet, and a Golden Ticket contest to win a private zoom concert where you hang with Mitch!
After this very limited vinyl - digital collectable VIP bundle is gone - itâs gone!

In addition to being an artist, Mitch is no stranger to the studio, and has worked with a variety of artists, labels, and brands from Taylor Swift, Boys Like Girls, Kenny Loggins, Craig Morgan, and Sony Music NY, to singer/songwriters Victoria Show, Gary Burr and Billy Falcon, and even voiceover work for Outdoor Channel, Field & Stream and many more. Mitch has even been the voice for Starburst candy!
Mitch is also an award-winning songwriter, and has written with legendary songwriters like Jim Weatherly, Richard Lee, Mike Reid, Desmond Child, Dennis Morgan, Victoria Shaw and Gray Burr. Heâs been signed to publishing deals with Warner Chappell and Chrysalis Music, but later launched his own publishing company to control his copyrights. Mitch loves the craft of songwriting... telling a story and resonating with his audience. "Songs are so powerful... it's amazing just how much a song can impact a person's life," says Malloy. âOnce again, life has delivered a lot of new material... from losing family members, to moving to the beach, to having a teenager. Thereâs definitely no shortage of inspiration!â
Mitchâs tenure as an artist has spanned several decades beginning as a regular on the New York music scene in the 80s. Mitch soon garnered a major recording deal with RCA/BMG Worldwide, and achieved success on the pop and rock charts, landed a coveted spot on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and has toured globally.
Mitch's voice has been highly sought after as a frontman for legendary acts as well as a guest vocalist on other artists' projects. In the mid-90s, Mitch was asked to replace Sammy Hagar as lead singer for Van Halen. But after spending time and recording with the band he declined. âWhen the band appeared on the MTV Music Awards with Dave [David Lee Roth], the fans expected his return â I expected his return. I felt as cool as the opportunity was, it just wasnât the right time,â said Malloy.
Lastly, if you miss out on the SING Market bundles, âTHE LAST SONGâ CD (alone) will be available in the US on Malloyâs label, Godsend Records, and internationally by Cargo Records based in the UK. Mitch looks forward to getting back out on the road and connecting with his fans in person. So, will this be the last song? According to Mitch, âGive it a listen, and you tell me!â
âMy hope with âThe Last Songâ record is that when listening you will experience some of the experiences and feelings and emotions I had while making it. If that happens then the world is a better place through music. And as always, I gave it everything I had. Crank it and enjoy!â
