Mike Baker

Mike Baker (September 2, 1963[1] - October 29, 2008) was the lead vocalist for the American progressive metal band Shadow Gallery.

Baker was an integral part in the formation of Shadow Gallery in 1985 when the band was known as Sorcerer at the time of their inception. Heavily influenced by singers Alice Cooper, Ronnie James Dio of Black Sabbath, Rob Halford of Judas Priest and Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden, he integrated the musical attributes of these bands and vocalists into his style of singing.[2]
