Legendary singer Ronnie Romero releases his new solo album, “Backbone” on October 24, 2025 Ronnie commented: “I actually have to thank my dear friend Russ Ballard!! Before I starte d writing the songs, I had this idea to make a song together, to link somehow the Rainbow connection we have. He immediately said yes and sent a cool idea which ended up being the song “Hideaway”. From there it was so easy to get inspired for the rest of the songs”. “Also, the song we did with my dear Roy Z, and of course the amazing guitar solo of one of our heroes Kee Marcello for the song with Russ… It’s so easy to write music when you are surrounded by such great people!”, he added. Romero continued: “Nothing would be possible without the help of my friend Jose Rubio, in the songwriting process and the wonderful job he did to get the powerful sound through all the album, since he took care of the mixing and mastering. I really believe it’s an important improvement from the previous album. I hope you all gonna like this one!! We feel very proud of what we achieved with Backbone”. “Backbone”, Ronnie Romero’s new solo album, is a bold and dynamic statement that marks a major step forward in his solo career. Featuring a collection of powerful and inspired heavy metal tracks, the album showcases Romero at the peak of his vocal prowess. The album is produced by Romero himself and mixed and mastered by his guitarist Jose Rubio Jimenez. Special contributions include guitar legend Kee Marcello, as well as acclaimed songwriter Russ Ballard, who penned the track “Hideaway”. The album also features a thunderous cover of Black Sabbath’s “Devil And Daughter”, reimagined with Romero’s signature intensity. Romero’s unmistakable voice and tireless work ethic have made him a standout figure in the hard rock and metal world. He has lent his talents to iconic acts such as Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow, The Michael Schenker Group, Lords of Black, The Ferrymen, Sunstorm, and most recently, Elegant Weapons, alongside Richie Faulkner of Judas Priest. “Backbone” follows Romero’s first solo album of original material, “Too Many Lies, Too Many Masters”, and two covers records. 2023’s “Raised On Heavy Radio” paid tribute to metal giants like Ozzy Osbourne, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Accept, and Metallica, featuring special guests such as Gus G., Chris Caffery, and Roland Grapow. Romero’s debut solo album, “Raised On Radio”, explored his personal musical roots, revisiting classic rock hits from bands like Survivor, Bad Company, Foreigner, Queen, and Led Zeppelin, all interpreted through his powerful and expressive vocal style. With “Backbone”, Ronnie Romero solidifies his place as one of the premier voices in today’s metal and hard rock scene - bold, authentic, and undeniably electrifying. “Backbone” Tracklist: 1.
