**Producer Nick Raskulinecz Debut Solo Single "Bonfire" is releasing soon, featuring Ian Thornley and Ray Luzier**

HISS Recordings is proud to announce the release of "Bonfire," the first single from the forthcoming debut album by Grammy-winning producer Nick Raskulinecz.

Known for his work with artists including Deftones, Foo Fighters, Rush, Alice In Chains, Korn, Evanescence, and Mastodon, Raskulinecz has spent more than two decades helping shape some of modern rock's most celebrated recordings. With "Bonfire," he steps into the spotlight as an artist, songwriter, and musician.

The track began as an experiment at Raskulinecz's Rock Falcon Studio, where he wrote the song and recorded the guitars and bass. He then enlisted longtime friend Ray Luzier (Korn) to contribute drums. The recording eventually found its way to Canadian rock icon Ian Thornley (Big Wreck), who wrote the lyrics and delivered a powerful lead vocal performance, along with a soaring guitar solo.

While Raskulinecz's production work has earned him widespread acclaim, songwriting and performing have always remained part of his creative life.

"I've always been writing songs and playing with friends—having fun with riffs," says Raskulinecz. "Asking my friends to play and sing on these tracks is what led to this release. It was really about having fun in the studio and doing something different than what we usually do. 'Bonfire' is about having a dream, taking chances, and not resting until you get there."

Driven by hard-hitting riffs, dynamic musicianship, and Thornley's unmistakable vocals, "Bonfire" offers the first glimpse into a project that brings together some of rock's most respected musicians while showcasing another side of one of the genre's most influential producers.

"Bonfire" will be available on all major streaming platforms.

Nick Raskulinecz is a Grammy-winning producer whose credits include Deftones, Foo Fighters, Rush, Alice In Chains, Korn, Evanescence, Mastodon, and many others. His work has helped define the sound of modern rock for more than twenty years. "Bonfire" marks the first release from his forthcoming debut album as a recording artist. by @thornicus

Garren from @loucin_guitar_co dropped off the “Dirty Dozen” 12 string, named after @sophia.thornley he truly is a master of his craft. Here she is in the “Throne of Tones”. I’ve been getting acquainted with it all day, playing every 12 string acoustic riff I know. And some that just happened. This guitar has songs in it for sure. by @thornicus
