VELVET REVOLVER Management Shoots Down New Singer Rumors -

[jacdaniel]

A spokesperson for Sanctuary Artist Management, which represents VELVET REVOLVER, has shot down Internet rumors that VR had picked Gord Prior, a singer with a Canadian-based band called BLU BONES, as its new lead singer.

"Gord Prior isn't the new guy," the spokesperson told Music Radar. "In fact, no decision has been made as to who the singer is."

According to management, Prior was sent tapes of two new VELVET REVOLVER instrumental tracks and asked to write words and melodies and to then sing over the music.

"But he's just one of numerous singers that tapes went out to," says the spokesperson. "Gord submitted his demos just like everybody else. He wasn't even asked to come in and do a formal audition. I don't know why these videos [see below] get out there, but that's just the nature of the Internet."
