Legendary rock singer Graham Bonnet and his band, GRAHAM BONNET BAND, are set to release their new studio album, “Circuit Breaker”, on March 26, 2027, through Frontiers Music Srl.
For the album’s first single, “The Fifth Force Of Nature”, Graham Bonnet teams up with none other than IRON MAIDEN frontman Bruce Dickinson.
Graham comments: “Having Bruce Dickinson perform a duet with us on this album was a thrill; he is an incredible singer and our voices blend together so beautifully. Truly an experience of a lifetime!”
Adds Bruce: “It was an honor to sing this terrific song with Graham, truly a vocal legend!”
The official music video for “The Fifth Force Of Nature” was filmed in February 2026 under the direction of Leo Liberti and is available to watch below.
Few voices in rock are as distinctive as Graham Bonnet’s. With a career spanning more than five decades, the legendary singer has contributed to some of hard rock’s most iconic records, including RAINBOW’s “Down To Earth”, MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP’s “Assault Attack”, the early releases of his band ALCATRAZZ, and numerous solo albums.
With “Circuit Breaker”, the GRAHAM BONNET BAND now presents a remarkable new studio album that pays tribute to his extraordinary musical legacy while bringing his unmistakable voice and hard rock spirit firmly into the present.
Graham states: “I think people will be surprised by the variety of the new album. There are lots of hidden gems in here and something for everyone.”
Driven by Bonnet’s unmistakable vocals and a strong collection of melodic, hard-hitting rock songs, “Circuit Breaker” finds the legendary singer sounding as distinctive and defiant as ever. He is joined by an impressive lineup featuring Beth-Ami Heavenstone on bass, Conrado Pesinato on guitar, Shane Gaalaas on drums, and Alessandro Bertoni on keyboards.
Executive produced by Beth-Ami Heavenstone and produced by Conrado Pesinato, the album highlights the band’s chemistry and creative direction, offering a powerful set of songs that celebrates Bonnet’s remarkable legacy while embracing the future. Further enhancing the record is an outstanding lineup of special guest musicians.
Bruce Dickinson joins Bonnet on the explosive “The Fifth Force Of Nature”, bringing together two of the most distinctive voices in hard rock and heavy metal for a remarkable collaboration. Dickinson also appears alongside Graham in the song’s official music video, making this meeting of two legendary vocalists even more special.
The album also sees Graham reunite with his former RAINBOW bandmate and longtime friend Roger Glover for the first time since the band’s landmark 1979 album “Down To Earth”, which Glover produced. Glover’s distinctive bass playing adds another dimension to “Wait For The Day To Break”, bringing together two musicians whose collaboration helped shape a significant chapter in hard rock history.
Kai Hansen, the legendary guitarist and vocalist known for his work with HELLOWEEN and GAMMA RAY, also makes a guest appearance on “The Captain”. Another iconic musician has contributed to the album, with further details set to be announced at a later date.
Another interesting connection links “Circuit Breaker” to one of the most important records in Bonnet’s career. Russ Ballard, the songwriter behind RAINBOW’s classic “Since You Been Gone” from 1979’s “Down To Earth”, has contributed songs to the new album. More than four decades later, this collaboration reunites Bonnet with a key figure from his past, creating a direct link between one of the defining periods of his career and his current musical journey.
However, “Circuit Breaker” is much more than a trip down memory lane. From the instant impact of “No One Is Talking” and “Feel The Power” to the melodic drive of “Landslide”, the intensity of “Vengeance Is Mine” and the commanding title track, the album delivers the perfect blend of melody, power and personality that has always made Graham Bonnet stand out.
