Biography
White Lion was formed in Newâ¯York City in 1983 by Danish vocalist Mikeâ¯Tramp and guitarist Vitoâ¯Bratta. The duo recruited drummer Nickiâ¯Capozzi and bassist Felixâ¯Robinson, and the band signed with Elektraâ¯Records, releasing Fight to Survive in 1985 after a difficult recording process that led to Elektra terminating the contract. The single "Broken Heart" introduced the group to the American market. In 1987, Pride was released under Atlanticâ¯Records; the single "Wait" peaked at Number 8 on the Billboard Hotâ¯100, and "When the Children Cry" reached number 3, propelling the album to double platinum status and cementing White Lionâs place in the glamâmetal scene. Subsequent albums Bigâ¯Game (1989) and Maneâ¯Attraction (1991) produced Gold and Silver certifications, respectively, and featured tracks such as "Little Fighter" and "Lights and Thunder". After a brief European tour, the band disbanded in 1991 amid changing musical tastes and internal differences. Mikeâ¯Tramp later reformed White Lion in 1999 and again in 2004, releasing Return of the Pride (2008) and a series of reârecorded albums under the Songs of White Lion trilogy beginning in 2023, maintaining the bandâs legacy into the 2020s.
