Throughout his career with Dream Theater, LaBrie has lent his voice to many other artists’ records as well as tribute albums. In 1991, not long after joining Dream Theater (and before ever appearing on a Dream Theater recording), he sang background vocals on the song “Life in Still Water” on Fates Warning’s Parallels album. He has appeared on many Trent Gardner releases (including Leonardo: The Absolute Man and Explorer’s Club), as well as appearing on albums by such artists as Shadow Gallery, Tim Donahue and Frameshift.
On December 29, 1994, while vacationing in Cuba, LaBrie was stricken with a severe case of food poisoning from contaminated shrimp and while vomiting, he ruptured his vocal cords. He saw three throat specialists who all said there was nothing they could do except have him rest his voice as much as possible. However, on January 12, 1995, against doctor’s orders, he was on the Waking Up the World Tour in Japan promoting Dream Theater’s Awake album with his voice far from normal. LaBrie has said he did not feel vocally “normal” until at least 2002. He has also said that this era was a very hard time for him as a singer, and depression as a result caused him to consider departing from the band, although his bandmates supported him and urged him to stay. After the World Tourbulence tour, he discovered that his voice had fully returned. He said that his voice was fully healed by time and training. However, while speaking to Greg Prato of Songfacts in 2019, LaBrie explained how the incident affected his vocal range. “So, instead of hitting D’s and E’s and F-sharps and all that stuff, I was able to hit C, C-sharp, and D. But I had to really watch it. I have hit F notes here and there, but I have to really watch it. But that was probably the darkest moment in my life, for sure.”
