QUIET RIOT have found a new singer – but they aren’t telling us who it is just yet.
Instead, the pioneering Sunset Strip act have tapped Dangerous Toys’ Jason McMaster for a couple of shows in the meantime.
Love/Hate’s Jizzy Pearl quit Quiet Riot a month ago and they immediately launched a worldwide search for his replacement. We do know it’s a guy … but not much more.
Now the band has posted a message on socials that read: “We’re excited to announce that we have officially welcomed our new vocalist into the band!
“He will make his live debut with us this October, and we’ll be revealing his identity very soon.
“In the meantime, we’d like to give a huge thank you to our longtime friend Jason McMaster, who will be stepping in on vocals for two upcoming shows: August 29 – Tower, MN, September 5 – Uncasville, CT
“We’re incredibly grateful to Jason for jumping in and helping us keep these shows on the books for our fans.
“The next chapter has officially begun. Stay tuned. The big announcement is coming soon.”
The fact the new singer is not immediately available does invite no doubt-pointless speculation. He must have other commitments, right?
