Velvet Revolver To Resume Singer Search
And you thought they\'d forgotten
Singerless Velvet Revolver have not given up hope of finding a new frontman, nearly two years after parting company with Scott Weiland.
Speaking to Rolling Stone Slash revealed that the band will continue searching for an "unknown” to fill the vacant frontman slot once they have each finished touring with their respective projects.
"I think Duff McKagan is doing something with Jane’s Addiction right now so we’re all sort of all over the place doing whatever until we can all regroup,” he says. "We did listen to a lot of singers, but there hasn’t been anybody that’s going to be the guy so far.”
Slash also reiterated that the new frontman will not be a well known frontman after having turned down a host of singers from other big bands that had offered their services.
"It’s really hard to do something with a voice that’s already really well known in an original band,” he says. "We want someone who is really good that hasn’t been recognized by the whole country as being amazing, but somebody who is just on the precipice of just being discovered.”
