The legendary Graham Bonnet is back with a star-studded album, redefining hard rock alongside metal titan Bruce Dickinson.

Prepare yourselves, metalheads! The iconic Graham Bonnet, a name synonymous with hard rock royalty, is gearing up to unleash his latest masterpiece, 'Circuit Breaker', on March 26, 2027, through Frontiers Music Srl. This album promises to be a seismic event in the metal world, and it's not just because of Bonnet's unparalleled vocal prowess; it's the electrifying collaboration with none other than Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson on the anthemic track 'The Fifth Force Of Nature'.

Bonnet, ever the showman, expressed his exhilaration over this historic duet: "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!" Dickinson, in turn, lauded Bonnet as a vocal legend, making this collaboration a monumental moment in heavy metal history.

The powerful music video for 'The Fifth Force Of Nature' was captured in February 2026 under the watchful eye of director Leo Liberti, and it’s bound to be a visual feast that complements the song's explosive energy. With a career that spans over five decades, Bonnet's unmistakable voice has graced classics like RAINBOW's 'Down To Earth' and the MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP's 'Assault Attack'. Now, with 'Circuit Breaker', he aims to bridge the past's glory with the present's intensity.

Bonnet promises a diverse array of tracks on this upcoming album, stating, "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." The GRAHAM BONNET BAND, featuring the formidable talents of Beth-Ami Heavenstone, Conrado Pesinato, Shane Gaalaas, and Alessandro Bertoni, delivers a powerful collection of hard rock anthems that showcases Bonnet's signature style while pushing musical boundaries.

Notably, 'Circuit Breaker' also marks a reunion with Roger Glover, Bonnet’s former RAINBOW comrade, bringing together two legends for the first time since the groundbreaking 'Down To Earth'. Glover’s bass work on 'Wait For The Day To Break' adds a rich layer to the album, enveloping listeners in nostalgia while forging ahead into new territory. And if that wasn’t enough, HELLOWEEN and GAMMA RAY's Kai Hansen will also make an appearance on the track 'The Captain', with more guest surprises to be revealed.

What’s more, the album nods to Bonnet's illustrious past by featuring contributions from Russ Ballard, the mastermind behind the classic 'Since You Been Gone'. This thread ties Bonnet's historic legacy to his current work, proving that while he reveres his roots, he remains fiercely forward-thinking. Tracks like 'No One Is Talking', 'Feel The Power', and 'Circuit Breaker' promise to showcase a blend of melody, muscle, and personality that has always defined Bonnet. This isn’t merely nostalgia; it’s a rejuvenation of hard rock’s spirit, and we cannot wait for the world to experience it.
