CHRIS CAFFERY Posts Behind-The-Scenes Clip From Vocal Recordings For New Solo Album

Guitarist Chris Caffery (Savatage, Trans-Siberian Orchestra) is currently in the studio working on his next solo album. He has checked in with another Facebook update:

This video was my first pass at a lead vocal in the second chorus and bridge for the song “Why?”. Just a raw track and yes I know it’s not perfect! First passes rarely are and I warm up as I sing!

During an interview with Vanyaland.com about the evolution of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Caffery addressed the upcoming Savatage reunion show at Germany’s famed Wacken Open Air and the possibility of the band staying active:

Caffery: “I’m gonna put it this way: for 12 years, 13 years, I’ve been waiting for my band to play again. We’re playing again. I don’t know what’s going to happen after that (laughs), but there were people that were putting a fork in it, and we’re getting up and not just running a marathon, were running in the Olympics with this festival being what it is. I’m not going to make any predictions, but let’s just say there’s a possibility that something more will happen after Wacken – that’s all I can say. And nothing would make me happier.”

Caffery recently commented on Savatage’s upcoming Wacken show:

“Savatage will close the festival that night following TSO’s first ever European festival appearance. I have been waiting for them to announce this for weeks. It was hard to keep it a secret! Yes, legion, our patience has finally paid off…”
