TOBY JEPSON'S NEWS

This was taken from Toby Jepson's official site :

"I can confirm that I have been approached for, and I have accepted the job as vocalist for Dio's Disciples. It is a project put together by Ronnie James Dio's Wife and manager Wendy Dio, to keep the great mans music alive and to celebrate the amazing legacy he left behind after his untimely death last year.

The band will consist of Dio band members: Craig Goldy on guitar, Simon Wright on drums, Rudy Sarzo on bass and Scott Warren on Keyboards. I will be joined on stage by vocalist Tim 'Ripper' Owens to share the duty of delivering what I believe to be some of the greatest Rock songs ever written.As im sure you can imagine, this is an unbelievable privilege for me but also incredibly daunting as Ronnie is without doubt one of the greatest vocalist to ever grace the stages of rock and can never be replaced.

Ronnie was a pivotal reason for me wanting to get into this game in the first place after hearing that amazing tone and delivery as a kid, so I don't take this task lightly and intend to do everything in my power to do as good a job as possible and hope all fans of Ronnie's can join us in celebrating the great man and his music.

There are shows plans for Europe and the rest of the world and will bring you the dates as soon as I have them.Until then I thank you for reading and sincerely hope you will join us and become one of Dio's Disciples!
Kindest regards"
