Singled Out: Sweet & Lynch
. Sweet & Lynch, the new group featuring Stryper frontman Michael Sweet and guitarist George Lynch (Dokken/Lynch Mob) are releasing their debut album 'Only To Rise' this week. To celebrate we asked Michael to tell us about song of the songs. Here is Michael with the stories: "September" - George sent me this very cool riff that instantly grabbed me. I pieced it all together, wrote melodies and lyrics and wanted to offer some sort of memorial to 9/11 with a simple but powerful lyric. The song is definitely anthemic and one to remember." "The Wish" - This song takes you back to a period when melodies and guitar solos ruled the airwaves. I think this is missing from music nowadays and to be honest, I 'd love to see it make a complete resurgence. There was no time/era like the 70's/80's and this song reminds you of the greatest time in hard rock/metal!" "Dying Rose" - Again, George sent me a guitar riff that was infectious and a stand out. Once I heard it, I had the melody in my head. I arranged it and completed the lyrics and once George (and the label) heard it they said - "Wow! That's a hit!" It's got a crossover feel to it and will appeal to many different listeners. One of my favorites as well as one of Georges favorites too!" Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the songs, listen for yourself and learn more about the album right here!
