Recent rumors seemed to suggest that Josh Scogin (‘68, ex-The Chariot) may have been recruited as Better Lovers’ new singer. However, he has since taken to social media to shoot down those claims.
Scogin said the following:
“To the rumors of me joining Better Lovers.
First of all, let me say that I am humbled (and honestly flattered) that folks would think of me as a good frontman (front person??) for Better Lovers. That machine is such a powerhouse of greatness, that even throwing my name in the mix is high praise.
But… As much as I love the dudes and the music, I am not joining Better Lovers. I don’t really join bands. I start them. And as fun as it would be to lock ourselves in a room and create music together, I just have some other ideas brewing for now, that I want to explore.
Plus it is really important to me that folks realize
The story arc of ’68 is a standalone story and it has nothing do with any external situations (like joining another band) It is its own trajectory. Set in motion from the very beginning.
Anyway — I’m very excited to see what’s next for Better Lovers. We all chat pretty often — So I know they are cooking.
So I encourage you to enjoy their story as it unfolds. Also don’t miss the season finale of ’68 this May/June — very (very) last show in Atlanta on June 20th.
— No A.I. was used to write this. Just a dude, his thoughts and poor attention to punctuation and spelling
Josh Scogin”
