Silent Tiger is the next exciting chapter in the musical journey for MRR’s own Jean Funes, founding member and guitarist of Sound Of Eternity and Hearts On Fire. With HOF vocalist Richard Andermyr working on new Rian material this year, Jean asked to be put to work and who better to work with than another stalwart of MRR, vocalist David Cagle. Together, along with master drummer Joel Mejia (Hearts On Fire), the trio forms Silent Tiger.
Jean Funes comments: “It has been a pleasure working with David on this album. He adds that amazing and powerful soulful voice and takes every song to another level. We’ve been working for months on the songs and its wonderful how the songs have developed naturally and have taken life on their own. This album is going to have the right edge to it, but at the same time plenty of melody and uplifting songs. You will hear elements of Def Leppard, Van Halen, Dokken, Mötley Crüe, Europe and more, because every one of these bands are a big influence to us, but I think Silent Tiger is very original with its approach to rock music.”

It’s been thirteen years since Rose Tattoo last released a studio album, so it seems fitting that with such a star-studded line-up now performing alongside Angry Anderson, this incarnation of the band should get something down in the recording studio that manages to capture the magic that has been pleasuring audiences, not just here in Australia but also in Europe & the UK over the last couple of years. It’s hard to believe that Rose Tattoo’s 1978 self-titled debut album, which was also titled ‘Rock n Roll Outlaw’ in some countries, would leave the imprint it has and so the band managed to spend some of 2019 locked away in a Sydney studio to re-record that debut album and the results are quite stunning. Added to the track listing of firm favourites are three previously unreleased songs that were only ever demoed back in the day, which give fans something new to hear.
