STATETROOPER Announce New Bassist

May 17, 2005

STATETROOPER, the reunited British hard rock outfit fronted by former MSG (MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP) singer Gary Barden, have posted the following message on their official web site:

"STATETROOPER are pleased to welcome new bass player Gavin Cooper to the band. Gavin has replaced our great mate Tony O'Hora who came in and helped us out for a few months and we would just like to say a big thank you to him for giving of his time in the the middle of his very hectic schedule. Gavin, who has previously been in PAUL DI'ANNO'S KILLERS, PASSION, BATTLEZONE and LIONSHEART, will play his first gig with the band at The Cartoon, Croydon, on 26th May as part of the preparation for The Sheffield Rock Festival and Sweden Rock."

STATETROOPER recently made an impressive return with their Michael Voss-produced sophomore album, "The Calling" (available via the band's own CIC Records).
