Deep Purple legend Glenn Hughes is the brand new frontman of supergroup The Useless Daisies
The Useless Daisies have seen a revolving door of musicians since forming in 2013. Now, the supergroup has made maybe its most important change, with Rock & Roll Corridor of Famer Glenn Hughes taking up as singer and bassist.
Hughes — who was a member of Deep Purple of their Mk. III and Mk. IV lineups and briefly fronted Black Sabbath within the ’80s — really takes over for 2 departing musicians: singer John Corabi (Mötley Crüe) and bassist Marco Mendoza (Skinny Lizzy, Whitesnake).
The Useless Daisies’ lineup now consists of Hughes, guitarist Doug Aldrich (Whitesnake, Dio), guitarist David Lowy (Mink, Crimson Phoenix), and drummer Deen Castronovo (Journey).
Together with the lineup change comes a brand new single, “Righteous Days”, which might be heard within the YouTube participant under.
The Useless Daisies addressed the lineup change, the brand new music, and their upcoming album within the following assertion posted on their web site:
“The Useless Daisies are a musical collective, whose members come collectively by a typical love for nice rock music. It’s a residing, respiration, musical organism with the credo, ‘Rock is certainly alive & nicely!’ From the band’s inception, the thought was for members to deliver their very own concepts to the desk but in addition have the pliability to return and go when engaged on their different tasks. Each John and Marco are, and at all times can be, part of The Useless Daisies musical household, however at this cut-off date they’ve determined to do some work on their very own solo tasks.
Sure, the blokes have not too long ago been within the studio in LA recording some new music with legendary singer & bass participant Glenn Hughes. ‘Righteous Days’ is airing completely throughout the planet this week. David, Doug, Deen & Glenn head again into the studio later within the yr to complete the album and look ahead to seeing you on the street in 2020!!”
Previous to Hughes approaching board, The Useless Daisies recorded and not too long ago launched a covers album known as Locked & Loaded, that includes renditions of classics by The Who, The Beatles, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and extra.
