JOEY VERA Is Looking For 'Rabid' MARYA ROXX Fans

April 19, 2008

Bassist Joey Vera (ARMORED SAINT, FATES WARNING, ANTHRAX) has joined the backing band of 22-year-old Estonian female singer Marya Roxx (real name: Maarja Kivi). The group, which is rounded out by guitarist Paul Crook (MEAT LOAF, ex-ANTHRAX, SEBASTIAN BACH) and drummer John Miceli (MEAT LOAF, RAINBOW),is currently rehearsing in Las Vegas, Nevada while performing every Wednesday and Thursday night at Divebar (3035 E. Tropicana Blvd.) in preparation for the band's slot at Musexpo 2008.

Musexpo (United Nations Of Music & Media) will take place at the House of Blues in Hollywood, California on April 28.

Commented Vera: "We're doing a show at House of Blues in Hollywood on Monday, April 28 and we need people to come down and make noise, you know, be like a rabid fan. I'll take the first 25 people who send me a message and I'll put you on our list. You'll also get an EP, buttons and a drum stick. Please include your first and last name. No plus-ones. I need one name per message, thanks! Also, we're playing in front of METAL SKOOL at the Key Club on Monday, May 5, so if you're in the area, stop by for a grand time."

Crook is one of the featured musicians on Marya's upcoming album, which was recorded last year at the Document Room in Malibu with acclaimed producer Kevin Shirley (IRON MAIDEN, DREAM THEATER, LED ZEPPELIN). Other guest musicians on the CD include Scott Metaxas (ex-NUCLEAR ASSAULT) on bass, Derek Sherinian (YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, ex-DREAM THEATER) on keyboards and Brian Tichy (ex-OZZY OSBOURNE, SLASH'S SNAKEPIT, GILBY CLARKE, PRIDE & GLORY) on drums.
