Dream Theater - Former Singer Dead At 72
Dream Theater shared news that former singer, Charlie Dominici, has passed away at the age of 72. Dominici was the voice of Dream Theater's 1989 debut album When Dream And Day Unite and parted ways with the band not long after its release, and he has since been replaced by current lead vocalist James LaBrie.
Statment from the band as follows: We are devastated to hear the news of the passing of former Dream Theater singer, Charlie Dominici. Charlie was the voice of DT on our debut album, When Dream And Day Unite’, recorded back in 1988. Beyond being a great singer, he was an incredibly talented songwriter, a well-rounded musician on both guitar and keyboards, and a long-time friend even after his departure from the band. Charlie’s unexpected passing is a tremendous loss to everyone in the Dream Theater family, and we wish to extend our deepest sympathies to the Dominici family during this immensely difficult time."

RIP I didn't know he had a self entitled band. For what I've listened it's very proggy and more heavy that I was expecting

Rest in Peace Charlie.
