Doogie White is one of the most talented and respected rock vocalists in the UK and beyond. His studio and live work with guitar and rock legends Ritchie Blackmore in Rainbow and Yngwie Malmsteen in Rising Force is well known and highly regarded by the fans and the bands alike.

But there is much more to Doogie's range and ability than just these two world-class gigs. Doogie tours or records constantly with a wide range of musicians from around the world playing festivals throughout the summer and club/concert dates in the winter. He has a number of solo projects underway as well as regular gigs and studio albums with his own band Cornerstone. He is a renowned session vocalist and has contributed to many well-known recordings and live performances including shows in 2009 with Jon Lord and Ian Paice.

*********** NEWSFLASH ************

Doogie has been asked by Axel Rudi Pell to participate at this Tribute/Charity concert to celebrate the life and work of Ronnie James Dio and to raise funds for the “Stand Up and Shout” cancer awareness Charity set up by Wendy Dio. A portion of the money raised will also be donated to a German Children's Cancer Trust.

Doogie said “ I was deeply, deeply saddened when I heard Ronnie had died. I was alone in a “strange city” in a “strange land”, taking a tourist bus tour of the city, when the text messages breaking news started coming through.I had to abandon the bus tour and stuck on the headphones and listened to “Follow the Tears” and “To Live for the King”.

With Rata Blanca in that “strange land”, we played Catch the Rainbow every night of the tour. Even though spoken language was a barrier most of the time, three words united everyone in the halls we played every night. We sang together, we shed tears together and we remembered. We remembered the music the words and the man. The three words were.. RONNIE JAMES DIO.

I am very happy and humbled to asked to sing a few songs that were a huge part of my musical education. I will try and do them justice. Maybe there will be more tears..who can say?? But in the end lets remember what Ronnie sings at the end of the Kerry Livgren song “To Live for the King”
“Rejoice!! Rejoice!! Rejoice!! Is there any choice?”
