Film producer Scott Lynch is working on a documentary about legendary rock bassist Jimmy Bain (DIO, RAINBOW, LAST IN LINE).

A video announcement in which Bain and Lynch detail the crowdfunding campaign to complete the project can be seen below.

LAST IN LINE is the band featuring DEF LEPPARD guitarist Vivian Campbell alongside fellow founding DIO members Vinny Appice, Jimmy Bain and Claude Schnell, plus singer Andrew Freeman, who has previously fronted HURRICANE and LYNCH MOB.

LAST IN LINE performs material from the early DIO records that Campbell appeared on.
