THE BAND
Mike Tirelli
Lead Vocals
Mike Tirelli (lead vocals) thought he would never sing again after being diagnosed with stage 3 stomach cancer in 2008. Despite the debilitating illness taking him out of the music scene for some years, Mike bounced back....better than ever. This American singer/songwriter is known for his exceptionally wide vocal range, as well as his powerful voice which has been compared to the late great Ronnie James Dio, who, coincidentally, had the same stomach cancer as Mike, but Dio tragically lost his battle with the disease in 2010. Mike was the former vocalist for Riot and Burning Starr, and is the current vocalist for the German band, Messiah's Kiss. Mike's vocals add a harder edge, supercharged performance, and can hit the high notes.
