Dio Disciples: Spreading The Gospel

Three years on from the metal megalegend’s passing, the work of Ronnie James Dio lives on in Dio Disciples. Comprised of members of the Dio band like guitarist Craig Goldy, drummer Simon Wright and keyboardist Scott Warren, along with vocalist Tim “Ripper” Owens (ex-Judas Priest) and others from Lynch Mob and Yngwie Malmsteen’s band, the Disciples are out heralding the release of The Very Beast Of Dio Vol. 2, which picks up where Vol. 1 stopped, running from 1996 onward in one of heavy metal’s most revered catalogs. Dio Disciples hit The Chance in Poughkeepsie, NY, on July 21 and Mexicali Live in Teaneck on July 22.
