Sebastian Bach - Working On New Solo Material
Former Skid Row singer Sebastian Bach recently entered a Los Angeles studio with his new, young, virtuosic guitarist Nick Sterling and producer Bob Marlette (Black Sabbath, Atreyu, Filter) to fine-tune the material for Bach's next solo album, tentatively due this summer through Frontiers Records.
In a recent Facebook posting, Bach wrote: "What a great day! We finished pre-production today (Saturday, March 5th) and are set to start tracking drums for 13 songs on Monday night after I film "That Metal Show". All songs are done and I could not be happier at this stage. Drummer Bobby Jarzombek (Rob Rock, Halford, Riot) is such a pro I can't wait to watch him wail on the kit all this week!"
Sebastian previously described his new solo material as "heavy, interesting, classic sounding, modern sounding, completely rock 'n' roll ? just how we like it!"

Sebastian Bach - To Open For Guns N' Roses In Europe
Sebastian Bach (ex-Skid Row) has posted the following SebastianBlog at his official website:
"Sometimes, in life, you make true friends. A true friend is someone whom you can see and then not see, but when you see them again, it is like no time has passed at all. A true friend is someone whom you can laugh with, talk with, hang out with, rock with, and confide in. Then there is the friend who gives you so much, you can't express in words how much they mean to you. When I look back on my life, I have to say that one of my true friends is Mr. W. Axl Rose.
As everyone now knows, when Guns N' Roses made their triumphant return to New York City a few weeks ago, Axl was cool enough to invite me on stage all four nights to sing with him the Guns N' Roses song of my choice, which happens to be 'My Michelle'. During the NYC shows Axl asked me if I wanted to fly with him to Europe to duet with him in England at Donington and Hammersmith. Of course I said YES and then I mentioned to him the recording of the new CD 'Angel Down' and how much it would mean for our band to open some Guns N' Roses shows. Axl's response was to offer the band the whole European tour.
To say that my mind is blown, or that I am thankful for this opportunity, is so superfluous. I really cannot express how much this means to me. Axl Rose is the most honest, genuine, straight-up, and talented person I have ever met in this business, and for him to give my band the chance to rock in front of all his fans is something I will never forget. He is now singing better than ever! My personal favorite new Guns N' Roses song is 'I.R.S.'. Last night I jammed with him at Rock Am Ring in Germany in front of 70,000 people after a two-day plane journey which put me in four countries in one day! It is gonna be a truly killer summer playing on tour with Guns N' Roses and recording the new CD as well!!!
See ya soon Europe and Japan!"
Upcoming Sebastian Bach tour dates are as follows:

4 - Milan, Italy at Gods Of Metal Festival (duet with Axl)
7 - London, UK at Hammersmith Apollo (duet with Axl)

Frameshift - Sebastian Bach Confirmed As Vocalist
As previously reported, DREAM THEATER vocalist James LaBrie was unable to reprise his role in FRAMESHIFT for the upcoming new album, Human Grain, thus a new body was brought in to replace him. According to ProgRock Records president Shawn Gordon, taking LaBrie's place is none other than Sebastian Bach. The vocals are due to be recorded next week, with a tentative release date planned for February.
The full Human Grain concept and audio samples (without Baz' vocals) can be found here( http://www.humangrain.com/ ). The material, written by multi-talent Henning Pauly, is described as "very dark and heavy as it deals with different aspects of human violence."

Iced Earth: Guitarist leaves, joins Sebastian Bach
Guitarist Ralph Santolla has officially left ICED EARTH and joined SEBASTIAN BACH's solo band. "There are several reasons for this decision, and for the moment I will keep them to myself," Santolla writes in a statement sent to BLABBERMOUTH.NET. "The other guys know my reasons, and hopefully this won't turn into a public pissing match. On the other hand, if it does, at least execution by musketry has gone out of style. I made some great friends, played some great, albeit difficult (!) metal tunes, and learned a lot from the experience. Whatever anyone else says about Jon , he IS a phenomenal rhythm guitarist.
"On a different note, I am the new lead guitarist for Sebastian Bach. We start playing July 22nd, and I can't wait. We'll do a new album later this year, so look for that, and I hope to see some of the cool people I met on tour with at some of these gigs. I am also in talks with Steve DiGiorgio , Gene Hoglan , and Tom Englund from EVERGREY about making an epic, orchestral metal album called 'ex Cathedra'. More on this later."
