ROSE Tattoo have announced that bassist Steve King will be returning to the band, replacing former AC/DC man Mark Evans.
Frontman Angry Anderson says he will be retiring the band on its 50th anniversary of 2026 and surviving past members Geordie Leach, Rob Riley and King would be invited back for the final lap of honour.
“First cab off the rank will be Kingy,” Anderson wrote
“Our beloved brother Mark, will step out to make way for Kingy for our upcoming September tour dates and the rest of 2024.
“Mark has been a joy to work with and has made a wonderful contribution to the band’s history, so it is with sadness that we say goodbye to him but there is a saying amongst us that, ‘Once a Tatt, always a Tatt!’ so Mark will always be with us, in spirit, whenever we take to the stage.”
Anderson also said the Tatts were working on a new, presumably final, album.
