Doro

German heavy metal/hard rock vocalist Doro is best known for her years with the power metal band Warlock, but she has had a long solo career and continues to command a loyal following (especially in Europe) long after the group's demise. After releasing four albums with Warlock in the 1980s, Doro set out on her own, touring and recording under her first name. She released Force Majeure in 1989, dialing back the gothic fantasy metal of Warlock and adopting a more pop-metal/hard rock sound, which she would continue to hone well into the next century. As the 2000s progressed, Doro found favor with standouts like 2006's Warrior Soul, 2018's Forever Warriors, Forever United, and 2023's Conqueress Forever Strong and Proud. Charting regularly in Germany with her solo LPs, she reached the Top Ten with the part-live solo compilation Warriors of the Sea in 2025.
