Former KORN Guitarist Holding Auditions For Touring Band

December 23, 2008

Former KORN guitarist Brian "Head" Welch has issued the following update:

"I am very happy and excited to announce that over the Christmas holidays I will be holding closed auditions for potential band members to hit the road with in 2009. If all goes well with the auditions, look for an announcement from me and Driven Music Group sometime in January of who I may have selected to be part of my band for touring. We will get you bio information on each band member selected. Thank you for your patience. Of course, Step 2 will be the announcement of any tour dates we put together. Looking forward to seeing all of you LIVE back on the road as soon as possible in 2009!!"

Welch's solo album, "Save Me From Myself", sold 7,800 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 63 on The Billboard 200 chart. The CD was released on September 9 through Driven Music Group (distribution by Ryko/Warner Music Group),the label Welch co-founded with music execs Greg Shanaberger and Mark Nawara.

"Save Me From Myself" was produced by Head, who recorded the music off and on for the past two years in Phoenix, Arizona. It features renowned musicians Tony Levin (PETER GABRIEL, DAVID BOWIE) and Josh Freese (A PERFECT CIRCLE, NINE INCH NAILS),and was mixed by Ralph Patlan and Bob Clearmountain. It's a testimony of Head's life as he battled with drug addiction and leaving KORN, and finding spirituality.
