In a new interview with Chris Akin of the Classic Metal Show, SKID ROW bassist Rachel Bolan spoke about the band's recently launched partnership with USA company Sweetwater, the world's leading online retailer of musical instruments and pro-audio equipment.

This groundbreaking collaboration invites singers from around the world to audition for the opportunity to front one of rock's most enduring and respected acts.

When asked if SKID ROW would consider hiring a different singer for each new album and corresponding touring cycle instead of settling on one person as the "permanent" SKID ROW vocalist, Bolan said: "I know what you're saying.

You're not the first person to say that.

But we've had six singers.

BLACK SABBATH still has us beat.

But it is what it is, man.

And no, me personally, to have a different singer each record, that would stress me out.",Bolan continued: "We just wanna get someone that understands how we work, how we tour, that the road isn't always great, because it's not for any band.

And we want someone with experience that knows that.

But the people that we're interested in past the virtual audition stage, we discuss with them.

It's, like, 'Here's how we operate, and this is how long you'll be away from home.' We're completely transparent.",The band has been taking their time to find the right singer due to the departure of Erik Grönwall in March 2024, who was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Despite their efforts to keep things on track, they are not "gun shy at all" but rather being cautious with the luxury of time before launching a new album and touring cycle.

This move is seen as an opportunity for SKID ROW to rebuild its sound and find the right vocalist to take them forward into the future.
