Vains of Jenna

Le groupe chéri de Kylen a un nouveau chanteur:

Swedish rockers VAINS OF JENNA have announced the addition of singer Jesse Forte to the group's ranks.

Forte was raised in Orange County, California and comes from a musical background. He attended music school at MI, played in a slew of bands since a teenager and even admits he panhandled on the corner playing guitar for money. Jesse says, "I am a performer first. Whether it be five people or five thousand — I embrace that opportunity to sing and play music."

VAINS OF JENNA's new vocalist was born in Arkansas but moved to the West Coast at a very young age. Eventually Hollywood's music scene came calling and Jesse started killing and thrilling crowds on the Sunset Strip.

"We first saw Jesse in 2009 when his band opened for us at the Cat Club," says VAINS OF JENNA co-founder and bassist JP White. "And he blew us away."

The Swedish rockers have had lots of success during their young career in the States. So the departure of their longtime friend, Swedish comrade and vocalist Lizzy DeVine was no doubt a big blow — but the band refused to lay down and die. "It's not in my blood to stop doing what I started," says Nicki Kin, the band's main songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. "I love music, I live music, and this is what I do."

VAINS OF JENNA's brand new single with Jesse Forte on vocals, "Everybody Loves You When You're Dead", is available for streaming on the band's MySpace page.

VAINS OF JENNA will play a headlining show at the Whisky A Go Go in Hollywood, California on Saturday, April 10. A European tour will follow, with dates booked in Norway, Sweden, England, Wales and Italy.

putain je savais même pas que le chanteur était parti

Espérons que le nouveau ait un timbre aussi sympa que l'ancien, le travail sur le dernier album était super prometteur

Et c'est le split...

Swedish/American rockers VAINS OF JENNA have released the following statement:

"After seven years, we have amicably and mutually decided to end VAINS OF JENNA. There's no drama behind the decision. We simply feel like it is time to move on in our lives and close this chapter. It has been a truly amazing journey for us over the years and we are grateful for the opportunity to do what we've done with this band. A huge thanks to everyone involved, all of our supporters, and, of course, all of our fans from around the world. We love you."

VAINS OF JENNA singer Jesse Forte, who joined the band in 2010, recently replaced Oni Logan in LYNCH MOB, the group led by legendary former DOKKEN guitarist George Lynch.

Original VAINS OF JENNA vocalist Lizzy DeVine gave an interview to Neon Lights in December 2011 in which he revealed that he exited the group because he didn't want to move back to Sweden along with his bandmates after spending several years in California.

After recruiting Forte as the band's new singer, VAINS OF JENNA's main songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Nicki Kin stated about the group's decision to carry on, "It's not in my blood to stop doing what I started. I love music, I live music, and this is what I do."

VAINS OF JENNA's first release with Forte was the "We Can Never Die" EP, which came out in 2010. A full-length album, "Reverse Tripped", followed in April 2011 via Deadline (a division of Cleopatra Records).
