Submitted by Darkone on Sun, 08/03/2014 - 10:15

Born in Houston, Texas , Sundown made his international appearance on the highly acclaimed Beyond Twilight-Section X, replacing vocal great Jorn Lande (Ark-Masterplan). Since he has been known for his dark, dramatic and vocally schizophrenic performances, his big range and formidable vocal power.

Other notable additions to his discography include Outworld - Outworld with shred guitar hero Rusty Cooley and Bobby Williamson (Eumeria) as well as the international recording project Epysode - Obsessions with a cast of performers from Pain of Salvation, Communic, Masterplan etc.

In late 2012, GUS G (Firewind-Ozzy Osbourne) contacted Sundown about the possibility of working together. After an audition with the band in Greece he would become FIREWIND’s front man for the entire year of 2013. Playing over 40 live shows including: Sweden Rock, Summer Breeze, Bloodstock Open Air, Wacken’s Full Metal Cruise, a 5 week US/Canadian tour and a headlining tour of Australia.

“He’s up there with Jorn (Ark-Masterplan) and Russell (Symphony X) and Steve (R.I.P) (Gotthard). I’d love to work with this guy. He can do anything from screams to melodic stuff and ballads, so there’s a guy I want to work with in the future.”

Gus G (Firewind-Ozzy Osbourne)

"He's fantastic, this guy. Everybody who sees him perform live, their jaws are dropped immediately. They're, like, 'Wow!”
