TRENTON, N.J. – Frontiers Records is proud to announce the release for the second Sunstor album, “House of Dreams.”

This AOR masterpiece, featuring former Rainbow, Malmsteen, and Deep Purple vocalist Joe Lynn Turner, will be out in America on May 19 via Frontiers/Super D and in Japan on King Records.

The first Sunstorm album saw the light of day in 2006 when Turner accepted Frontiers President Serafino Perugino’s concept to blow the dust off from some potential AOR hit songs that Turner had writtern for the aborted follow up to his 1985 solo debut “Rescue You.” It turned out to be one of the most successful, straight-ahead melodic rock releases of 2006. Jim Peterik (ex=Survivor, Pride of Lions) supplied additional tracks and the album was rounded off with some other AOR classics picked by Turner and Perugino.

The stunning production, courtesy of Pink Cream 69’s studio wizard Dennis Ward, was hailed as one of the highlights and key factors to the album’s success. When the second release was being planned, it was a natural choice to ask Ward to be a part of the project again. This time, he played bass and sang background vocals. He also enlisted Uwe Reitenauer and Thorsten Koehne on guitars, Chris Schmidt on drums, and Gunter Werno on keyboards.

Once again, Turner dug deep into the archives and found some classy melodic rock gems to resurrect. One of the highlights that might sound familiar to fans is “I Found Love,” a song that Turner often used to open up his concerts on the “Rescue You” tour. There’s also “Forever Now” and “Save a Place in Your Heart,” where another AOR cult hero, Paul Sabu, appears among the writing credits.

Perugino also asked Turner to finally release “his” version of the amazing ballad “Walk On” that Turner co-wrote with Desmond Child (KISS, Bon Jovi, etc.) for the Jimmy Barnes album “Freight Train Heart” in 1987. Additionally, Jim Peterik was called in to offer his talents to Sunstorm once again. The results include “Tears on the Pages” – a tune co-written by Jon Lind and Russ Ballard. Peterik also contributed “Say You Will” and “Gutters of Gold.” Brothers Tom and James Martin (House of Lords, Khymera) wrote the remaining tracks and were able to capture the spirit and quality of songs expected from the Sunstorm project.

Turner, who recently returned from a tour of Russia with Over The Rainbow, is excitedabout the release of “House of Dreams.” “Once again, Serafino and the staff at Frontiers have proved that they know how to cater to melodic rock fans,” he said. “I am glad that they believed in the Sunstorm concept enough to get behind the release of a second album. There are plenty of people all over the world that love this genre of music and I still enjoy making it. It’s also invigorating and rewarding to be able to sing some of these songs that I co-wrote or performed in the ’80s that never had a chance to be released properly. Jim Peterik came through again with incredible tracks – well structured with compelling lyrics and melody changes. The Martin brothers also brought in some songs that will probably translate great, live, and that the fans will really enjoy.”

Sunstorm’s “House of Dreams” is a real ‘must have’ for all JLT lovers and a stunning release for all melodic rock fans.

Final tracklisting includes: “Divided,” “Don’t Give Up,” “The Spirit Inside,” “I Found Love,” “Say You Will,” Gutters of Gold,” “Save a Place in Your Heart,” “Forever Now,” “Tears on the Pages,” “House of Dreams,” and “Walk On.”
