Ron Coolen is a Dutch multi-instrumentalist who has released his debut album “RISE” through RC Music on March 1, 2020. The album features a great line-up of world class guest musicians: George Lynch, Keith St. John, Christopher Amott, Göran Edman , Stephan Forté, Joey Concepcion, Thorsten Koehne, Chris Clancy, Johannes Persson, Daniël Verberk, Steve Lamb and Sam Walters.
RISE contains 12 tracks in the best style of classic hard rock and heavy metal, with some prog and thrash here and there. All music is written by Ron Coolen, and he played all rhythm guitars, drums, bass and keyboards. RISE is produced by Hans Pieters (NL).
Tragic events in the US inspired Ron to 'Paradise', a tribute to the victims of California's Camp Fire in 2018; and ‘Too late to Surrender’ is dedicated to the victims of the deadliest shooting in America's history, that happened in Las Vegas in 2017.
Preceding the release of a new full length album (expected by the end of 2023), a first single is released on May 5: 'HEAVY METAL TILL I'M DEAD'. The song is co-written with Keith St John and features Joey Concepcion. 'Heavy Metal Till I'm Dead' is mixed by Hans Pieters and mastered by Grammy nominated Svante Forsbäck.
