Warrel Dane is the lead singer of the progressive metal band Nevermore. He is also formerly the singer of 1980s band Sanctuary. Dane was trained for five years as an opera singer and utilizes a very broad vocal range (between 5 and 6 octaves according to Warrel's teacher), spanning from notes as low as the A below low C, or A1, to notes as high as the F above high C, or F5. His use of very high falsetto notes up to the B♭ below soprano C, or B♭5, was more prominent in his Sanctuary and Serpent's Knight days but is still utilized in Nevermore.
Warrel, along with bassist Jim Sheppard, is a certified chef and formerly owned a restaurant in Seattle. As reflected in his songwriting, Warrel is critical of religion and government and has expressed mixed feelings toward the advancement of technology.
Dane's first ever solo record, Praises to the War Machine was released May 13, 2008 on Century Media Records.
