Drive, She Said, the AOR and melodic rock veterans, will release their new studio album, “Pass The Torch”, via Frontiers Music Srl. on December 4, 2026.
Check out the album’s second single and the video for Catch The Wind below. Before this latest single, Drive, She Said had already put out the single We Own The Night.
This time around, keyboardist Mark Mangold, the band’s creative force, has brought former Lillian Axe vocalist Derrick LeFevre into the fold. LeFevre doesn’t try to copy the vocal style of original singer Al Fritsch; instead, he breathes his own flavor into the new songs.
The album “Pass The Torch” is something of a tribute to Al Fritsch, and Mangold adds that it forms a creative, artistic bridge between the band’s past and present incarnations.
The album was produced by Mark Mangold. The mix was handled by the seasoned Dennis Ward (Pink Cream 69, Magnum, among others).
You can already pre-order “Pass The Torch”.
