"I've always been a rebel to some, it's just that life is too short to try and please everyone. I love my fellow man but I always go by what burns inside and needs to surface. Freedom isn't just a word to remember, it has to be a lifestyle. The Phoenix is a symbol of rising, you have to keep rising above it all. With all that's rapidly changing in our world, I will still have my say, and on this album I've done exactly that, take a listen." (Rob Tognoni, 2023)

With "Rebel" Rob Tognoni delivers his masterpiece and puts his own stamp on cover versions like Bowie's "Rebel, Rebel" or the Irish folk song "Whisky In The Jar" (best known in the versions by Thin Lizzy or Metallica).
