Damian Wilson
Damian Wilson (born 11 October 1969) is an English singer-songwriter and musician. Wilson works in the progressive metal genre and was the lead singer of Headspace and Threshold. He sang and toured with bands and projects for Star One, Ayreon, Landmarq, Praying Mantis and with Rick Wakeman's English Rock Ensemble.
As a solo artist he has released 5 solo albums, a DVD and a retrospective compilation album.
Damian began recording music in 1991 with the band Landmarq. He featured on their debut album, Solitary Witness which was released in 1992, followed by a second album, Infinity Parade (1993) and The Vision Pit (1995).
Wilson sang on English prog metal band Threshold's debut album Wounded Land' (1993). In 1996, Wilson joined up with Threshold again to record their third album Extinct Instinct'. Another successful European tour followed, after which Wilson left the group. During that time Iron Maiden approached Wilson to audition and considered him as a replacement for the departing Bruce Dickinson.
In 1997, Wilson's first solo album Cosmas was released. This album was a departure from the heavy/progressive rock sound to which his fans had become accustomed.[citation needed]
In 1998, Wilson was one of the lead vocalists on Arjen Lucassen's Ayreon album Into the Electric Castle.
From 1998 to 2000 he played the lead role of Jean Valjean in Sir Cameron Mackintosh's touring production of Les Misérables. He was asked to audition for the role after he tripped over the dog owned by an actor who knew his work, while running along the Thames.
After the Les Misérables tour, Wilson sang on the next three Ayreon albums The Dream Sequencer, Flight of the Migrator and Ayreonauts Only. His collaboration with Arjen Lucassen resulted in three more Star One albums; Space Metal (2002), Live on Earth (2003) and Victims of the Modern Age (2010). In 2000 and 2001, Wilson toured Europe and South America with Rick Wakeman as part of the English Rock Ensemble. This resulted in a Live DVD and an album Out There.[citation needed]
