Legendary Guitarist Robby Krieger Set To Release New Solo Album Entitled Singularity On Oglio Records

Online, June 2, 2010 (Newswire.com) - LOS ANGELES, CA Robby Krieger returns with a new instrumental solo album, Singularity, on Oglio Records, a Fontana/Universal distributed label. On Singularity, Robby continues to explore his unique flamenco infused jazz-rock sound as heard on his previous album for Oglio Records, Cinematix. Singularity was produced by Robby Krieger and Arthur Barrow, features an original Krieger painting as the cover art and will also be available on vinyl.

"SINGULARITY" was named after my painting which we used for the album cover. A singularity is a profound event such as the "big bang", which was the creation of the universe. I could have started with something smaller, such as, say the destruction of a galaxy or two, but I figured what the hell. Hopefully, the music evokes thoughts along those lines. Iʼm very happy, that after all these years I was able to record some flamenco guitar, which comprises the intros for two of the songs, 'Russian Caravan" and "Event Horizon". Iʼm also very happy with some of the slide guitar such as on "Southern Cross" and "Waterslide" - Robby Krieger

During his time as The Doors guitarist, Robby wrote some of the bandʼs best known songs including "Light My Fire", "Love Me Two Times", "Love Her Madly" and "Touch Me". He was also voted in at #91 on Rolling Stoneʼs list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists Of All Time and in 2009, Robby partnered with the Gibson Guitar Corporation to release his very own limited edition signature guitar, the ʻInspired By Krieger SGʼ.

Robby Krieger rejoins his fellow The Doors member, Ray Manzarek, who also released his own solo record, "Love Her Madly" on Oglio Records, in their group Manzarek-Krieger for a new tour beginning May 27th.
