Europe\u2019s lead guitarist John Norum has signed a record deal with Gain\/Sony Music. He will shortly enter the studio and record his new solo album, due to be released in September. John Norum released his first solo album \u201dTotal control\u201d in 1987 and has made eight solo albums in total since then. The latest album \u201cPlay Yard Blues\u201d came out in 2010. John has been working with Deep Purple\u2019s front man Glenn Hughes and Don Dokken over the past years so don\u2019t be surprised if there will be some other international guest appearances on the forth coming album.<\/p>\n

He will play live both as a solo artist and with Europe in 2013. Europe will do their 30-anniversary show as the headline act on Sweden Rock Festival in June 7th<\/p>\n

\u201cIt feels real good. I\u2019m finally on the only real Swedish rock label with international ambitions\u201d John Norum.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s gonna be great working with John Norum\u2019s solo album. He\u2019s one of the best and most respected guitarist in the world\u201d Markus Tagaris – GAIN<\/p>\n
