Hoekstra says of the album: "A couple of years ago, I was at a crossroads professionally and personally and just wanted to make some changes in terms of what I was doing with my life to get where I feel I needed to go. These songs are all about eliminating the obstacles that keep us from our destiny. I think that's something everyone can relate to."

The guitarist is joined on the record by vocalists Jeff Scott Soto, Russell Allen and Chloe Lowery, bassist Tony Franklin, drummer Vinny Appice and keyboardist Derek Sherinian. Read more and check out the album teaser - here.
