ROB ZOMBIE Decides Against Peforming New Single On 'Jay Leno'

March 13, 2006

Contrary to previously published reports, ROB ZOMBIE will NOT be performing his new single "Foxy Foxy" on NBC-TV's "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno". Instead, he will be debuting a new song from his upcoming "Educated Horses" album, entitled "The American Witch". "Since you've all heard 'Foxy Foxy' I thought a new song would be cool," Zombie explained.

ZOMBIE's appearance on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" is slated for Wednesday, March 15.

"Educated Horses" is scheduled for release on March 28 via Geffen Records. The follow-up to 2001's "The Sinister Urge" was recorded at Los Angeles' Chop Shop Studios with co-producer Scott Humphrey, who had previously worked with Rob on the platinum hits "Hellbilly Deluxe" and "The Sinister Urge". Other musicians contributing to the CD include Josh Freese (A PERFECT CIRCLE, VANDALS) and Tommy Lee (MÖTLEY CRÜE).

ROB ZOMBIE recently directed the video for the album's first single, "Foxy Foxy" in Los Angeles. Zombie re-teamed with "The Devil's Rejects" cinematographer Phil Parmet. Parmet has also worked on LED ZEPPELIN's "The Song Remains the Same" and FRANK ZAPPA's "Baby Snakes".

Zombie is now gearing up for the "Educated Horses Tour". The tour is scheduled to start March 17 in Jacksonville, Florida and hit 27 cities before concluding five weeks later in Mesa, Arizona. Joining Rob on this tour will be guitarist John 5 (ex-MARILYN MANSON),longtime bassist Rob "Blasko" Nicholson and drummer Tommy Clufetos (ex-ALICE COOPER, TED NUGENT). Support acts on the tour will be LACUNA COIL and BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE.

The singer took five years off between studio albums while he wrote and directed his first two movies, the 2003 horror hit "House of 1000 Corpses" and its sequel, 2005's "The Devil's Rejects".
