Video: MACHINE HEAD Frontman Talks About His Love Of Playing Guitar

August 13, 2013

In the two-minute clip below, guitarist/vocalist Robb Flynn of San Francisco Bay rea metallers MACHINE HEAD talks to Gibson about his love of playing guitar.

Bassist Jared MacEachern made his live debut with MACHINE HEAD on June 24 in Spokane, Washington.

Some fans might remember MacEachern from MACHINE HEAD's 2007 "The Black Tyranny" tour, on which he performed with his previous band, SANCTITY. MACHINE HEAD, challenged to find a fill-in bass player for the North American tour after an injury sidelined their then-four-stringer Adam Duce, also found themselves in need of someone to sing harmony with singer/guitarist Robb Flynn.

Earlier this year, MACHINE HEAD conducted an extensive search for candidates through various channels, the most fruitful of which proved to be video submissions. Sifting through more than 400 videos, the band personally reviewed and evaluated everyone's performances, including MacEachern, who made the short list without a second thought.

After reviewing all of the submissions, the band narrowed down the 400-plus candidates to a short list of seven, each of whom took a trip to Oakland to perform a handful of songs in person and spend the day hanging with the band.
