An upcoming tribute album titled, Magic Power: An All-Star Tribute to Triumph, will celebrate the music of the Canadian hard rock legends Triumph. The 15-track collection will be released on June 6th via Round Hill Records, and it includes Sebastian Bach‘s newly-released rendition of “Rock & Roll Machine.” The project showcases a series of Triumph covers featuring a star-studded lineup including Slash, Nancy Wilson, Joey Belladonna, Dee Snider, and more. Conceived by veteran producer Mike Clink, the album pairs a group of talented musicians with an impressive array of rock vocalists, covering classic Triumph hits like “24 Hours a Day,” “Magic Power,” “Lay It on the Line,” and “Fight the Good Fight.” “The first time I heard this song (‘Lay It on the Line’), I was blown away,” stated Snider. “There’s only one Rik Emmett and Triumph. I’m honored to be a part of this!” (Consequence of Sound)
