Alice Cooper drummer Glen Sobel (whose credits also include Vivian Campbell, Sixx: A.M., Paul Gilbert and Impellitteri) recorded drum tracks for 9 songs over the weekend for Villians Of Vaudeville, the new band project fronted by Kenny Kweens (Shake the Faith, L.A. Guns).
Sobel and Kweens last collaborated in the Warner Bros. act Beautiful Creatures, whose line-up also included current Guns N’ Roses and Sixx: A.M. guitarist DJ Ashba as well as Joe Leste (Bang Tango) and Anthony Focx (‘Wayne’s World’).
The tracks were recorded at Silver Cloud Studios in Redondo Beach, California by Joe Floyd (Bruce Dickinson, Rob Halford) and are expected to be released this summer. Villians Of Vaudeville can be found at villainsofvaudeville.com and www.facebook.com/VILLAINSOFVAUDEVILLE.
