Bio
........ Thunder Rider has composed quite an extensive repertoire of songs based on the belief that a true attempt at originality and versatility will be their key to success. The operatic vocal style, the soaring melodic and lightning guitar leads, the haunting orchestral keyboards, the angelic female back up vocals, accompanied by the thunderous combination of bass and drums, generate all the electricity required to power Thunder Rider. Project Members Front row: Pat Hammer, John Blackwing, Bruce Corian Back row: Mark Wildword, Roberto Deus, Nathalie Lacourse, Luc Dufresne, Bryan Clarke, Nathalie Dauphin During the launch of Thunder Riders independent self-produced debut album, live portions were filmed for the video Death to Death, the albums title track. The video was aired several times on Musique Plus and Much Music (Canadian music video stations), and on Rock Stage, a highly rated local music entertainment television show. The video was also included in an Underground U.S.A. Music Magazine compilation, to be broadcast in 39 countries on the Super Channel. Upon invitation, Thunder Rider visited Italy on a promotional tour playing to a very receptive and enthusiastic audience. Thunder Riders demo material was included in two consecutive compilation compact disks distributed by ADISQ, called Griffé Québec. Thunder Rider has been involved in several other substantial promotional projects, the first of which, a M.E.A.T Magazine compilation CD, Raw M.E.A.T ..3, includes an original Thunder Rider composition entitled For Christs Sake. The subsequent endeavour, Lilliputs compilation CD, includes their original composition Preacher. The CD compilation, Ruins, features For Christs Sake, and Blackwing was included in Metal Invader, a Greek Metal Magazine compilation CD. CFCF Cable TV Channel 9s Rock Stage recorded Thunder Riders live in-studio performance. This program was aired numerous times throughout the television season. Montreals most prominent radio station CHOM 97.7 FM played host to Thunder Rider during the new music program Made in Canada. In addition, Thunder Rider was able to significantly increase its following by touring clubs, local universities, colleges, and underground radio stations, also accepting interviews in regional and international rock magazines and e-zines. The bands first recordings are available on Thunder Riders album/demo compilation CD Thunder Rider - Tales of Darkness and Light, and their latest recording Thunder Rider - Tales of Darkness and Light Chapter II is available on both limited edition LP and on CD (with four bonus tracks). Being a truly imaginative group, they have conceived a concept to rule their music, lyrics and stage show. At this time, this band of musicians is ready to take the world by storm. Thunder Rider is currently experiencing global critical acclaim of their latest recording, Thunder Rider Tales of Darkness and Light Chapter II, and is proud to be selling their music all over the world despite the fact that they are an independent and unsigned project. Thunder Rider is very pleased to have taken part in the Thunder Over Germany Tour, which included performances in Wesseling, Datteln, Lauda-Königshofen, Steinfurt and Itzehoe. They were very honored to take part in the prestigious Masters of Metal, Keep It True ..4 Festival in Germany on April 2, 2005. Thunder Rider is currently made up of three of the original members of the band, John Blackwing, Pat Hammer and Bruce Corian, accompanied by long time keyboardist Roberto Deus and keyboardist/bassist Luc Dufresne. The latest to join the project is bassist Bryan Clarke and back up singers Nathalie Dauphin and Nathalie Lacourse.
