Dorothy, Sebastian Bach, Nancy Wilson, Joey Belladonna, Slash and Dee Snider are among the many musicians coming together to honor one of the most successful Canadian rock bands of all time, Triumph, on “Magic Power: All Star Tribute to Triumph.” Round Hill Records will release the album on June 6, 2025; pre-order it here.
The 15-track album also features drummers Kenny Aronoff and Tommy Aldridge, and guitarists Bumblefoot, Paul Gilbert and Nita Strauss.Â
A sneak preview of the album, “Rock & Roll Machine” featuring Sebastian Bach on vocals, can be heard below.
“The music of Triumph will always hold a special place in my heart,” Bach said. “I’m super proud to pay tribute to one of my favorite bands of all time … the rock ‘n’ roll machine known as Triumph!”
The project was conceived by Mike Clink, who has produced classic recordings for Guns N’ Roses, Motley Crue and Whitesnake.
The participants were honored to salute Triumph.
Guitarist Phil X said: “It is so incredible to get back to my roots with my brothers, Gil, Mike and Rik. The Triumph fans will love this!”
Journey drummer Deen Castronovo said: “Triumph was a huge influence. No Gil Moore, no Deen Castronovo singing behind a kit.”
“The first time I heard this song (‘Lay It on the Line’),” Dee Snider said, “I was blown away. There’s only one Rik Emmett and Triumph. I’m honored to be a part of this!”
Originally formed in 1975 and hailing from Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, Triumph always was proud of their Great White North roots. And seemingly ever since its inception, Triumph was on the cutting edge of technology when it came to their live show—particularly lighting, sound and effects.Â
Sophisticated lasers, pyrotechnics and moving lighting rigs, all computer-controlled—Triumph was one of the first arena rock bands to incorporate all of these elements into its shows. Triumph’s headlining tours were legendary, and the band was featured at many memorable stadium/outdoor shows, including the US Festival, the World Series of Rock, the American Rock Festival and Texxas Jam and Day on the Green.
