Hard rock vocalist Graham Bonnet issues authorised biography Graham Bonnet: The Story Behind The Shades<\/em> in March 2016 through Easy On The Eye Books.<\/p>\n

The tome was written in collaboration with author Steve Wright, responsible for helming the singer\u2019s fanzine. Wright was granted access to Bonnet\u2019s own archive as well as friends and family.<\/p>\n

In addition to a standard edition, a limited edition signed by Graham Bonnet including a CD of rare material as well as a unique cover design will be released.<\/p>\n

Bonnet was born in Skegness, England in 1947. As part of The Marbles, the singer charted at position five on the UK singles chart with the track \u2018Only One Woman\u2019. A self-titled solo album arrived in 1977, replacing Ronnie James Dio as the frontman of hard rock ensemble Rainbow in 1979. Down To Earth<\/em> emerged in July of that year, spawning the singles \u2018Since You\u2019ve Been Gone\u2019 and \u2018All Night Long\u2019. Rainbow appeared at Donington\u2019s Monsters Of Rock festival in 1980, although Bonnet exited the fold in the following year.<\/p>\n

A stint with the Michael Schenker Group resulted in the 1982 record Assault Attack<\/em>, but was short-lived.<\/p>\n

Bonnet formed Alcatrazz in 1983, who recorded the albums No Parole From Rock \u2018N\u2019 Roll<\/em> (1983), Disturbing The Peace<\/em> (1985), and Dangerous Games<\/em> (1986). Since that time, Bonnet continues to record and tour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
