Winger
By All Music Guide
A former member of Alice Coopers band, bassist Kip Winger formed his own group in 1986; in addition to vocalist/bassist Winger, the group featured guitarist Reb Beach, bassist Paul Taylor, and drummer Rod Morgenstein, formerly of the Dixie Dregs. Taking their name from their leader, Winger specialized in the stylish pop-metal that sent Bon Jovi and Poison to the top of the charts. The bands eponymous debut sold over a million copies on the strength of the rocker Seventeen and the allad Headed for a Heartbreak. Wingers second album, 1990s In the Heart of the Young, was equally successful, selling over a million copies and featuring the hit power allad Miles Away. However, the band didnt outlast the post-alternative pop-metal backlash and the group faded away after the release of their 1993 album Pull. Kip Winger launched a solo career at the tail end of the 90s. The band reunited in 2006 for IV.
