September 30, 2014

FOZZY is proud and honored to announce the addition of JEFF ROUSE as their new bass player. Jeff is an incredible musician and singer who has spent the last decade playing in DUFF McKAGEN’s LOADED and is also the lead singer and guitar player in THE GUESSING GAME. After former bassist Paul DiLeo amicably and mutually parted ways with FOZZY last May, Jeff stepped in and immediately injected his amazing musicianship and electrifying stage presence into FOZZY’S already critically acclaimed live show. “I’m stoked to have been asked to join FOZZY and to hit the road to support ‘Do You Wanna Start A War!’ Can’t wait to see everyone out there!” Rouse said. Rich Ward comments, “The first time I saw Jeff play with DUFF McKAGAN’S LOADED, it was immediately apparent that I was watching a special talent. He’s a pocket player with killer tone and amazing stage presence. One of the few total package musicians that I have ever known and it’s an honor to call him a bandmate and more importantly, my brother.” FOZZY [Read More]

June 23, 2014

One of our favorite heavy metal guitar shredders, Rich Ward (The Duke Of Metal) from FOZZY happens to be in the right place at the right time to rescue a baby deer. Rich found the baby deer during a run in the woods. Check out his story which he posted on his Facebook page below: A few hours ago I was going for a run at my local park, and I saw a juvenile deer out in a field about 200 yards away from me. As I got closer, I could tell that something was wrong, as it was very “wobbly”, seemed very weak, and appeared to be disoriented. I watched from about 100 feet away for a couple of minutes, looking around for it’s mother, and just trying to get a better idea of what may be wrong. I walked slowly towards the deer until I got about 10 feet away, then I got down on my knees and started to talk to it. It just walked/staggered right over to me, as to say [Read More]
