Christian Martucci of Thousand Watt Stare will join Stone Sour on new tour

December 4, 2013

I know I have told you before that I love Christian Martucci’s music. I have my Ipod filled with great songs from Christian’s past and they are some of my favorite songs. From “Nowhere Ride” by The Chelsea Smiles to “Last Fucking Hope” by Black President and to “Shine”, “Downsider” and “Lights Out” from “Thousand Watt Stare“. Not to mention Christian’s solo project, “Man Without a Name”. Christian is just purely awesome on guitar and vocals. He has such a great unique sound that just draws you in and energizes you. He is like liquid adrenaline running through your veins.

Well, Stone Sour recently announced their upcoming tour which is set to start in January in Florida. They also made an announcement that due to the upcoming Slipknot album, guitarist Jim Root will not be heading out on tour with them. We will miss Jim but guess who is coming in to play for the tour??? That is right, the ever so talented Christian Martucci. So Christian will be rejoining his old bandmate Roy Mayorga who was in Black President with him.

So make sure to check the tour dates on the Stone Sour website so you can catch them out on this upcoming tour. Meanwhile, if you don’t already have it, head over Hardline Entertainment site to pick up Christian’s Thousand Watt Stare album Silver Dimes. Christian says of the album, “I’ve been in a few bands over the years that were expected to sound a certain way and it just never made me happy, It’s all about feel…That’s the thing that makes this band special to us. There are no rules.” The album definitely brings a much more heavier dark edge to their punk influenced sound. You will love it!
