Stone Temple Pilots Cancel Upcoming Acoustic Tour

Posted by caemanamelio on

Stone Temple Pilots have revealed that vocalist Jeff Gutt will be undergoing surgery for a “severely herniated disc.” As a result, the band’s upcoming acoustic tour has been cancelled.

The group commented:

“We are sorry to announce that we must cancel the upcoming Perdida acoustic tour. Our brother Jeff has a severely herniated disc and doctors have advised immediate surgery which will require weeks of recovery time and physical therapy.

Thankfully Jeff is expected to make a full recovery and we will continue with our Australian tour with Live and Bush in April, the summer tour with Nickelback, and we hope to reschedule the Perdida tour later this year.

Everyone who purchased tickets for the Perdida tour will get full refunds for their tickets at point of purchase.

Thank you all for your understanding. We love you all and hope to see you on the road again soon.”

As previously reported, Stone Temple Pilots’ new album “Perdida” will be released on February 7.

Eric Kretz On New Stone Temple Pilots Album: “We Kind Of Tapped Into Our Love Of Folk Music”

Posted by caemanamelio on

During an interview with Loudwire, Stone Temple Pilots drummer Eric Kretz talked a bit about the band’s upcoming album. According to him, the group “kind of tapped into [their] love of folk music” while recording the effort.

Kretz said the following:

“It’s a beautiful record. It’s different in that — every record we’ve done has some really hard-hitting songs and we usually open every album with it, whereas this one doesn’t have loud, hard-hitting songs. We really tapped into an emotional side of ourselves and took it to do the whole record that way.”

“[There’s] a wicked flute solo! It’s so cool. We kind of tapped into our love of folk music that we grew up on in the ’60s and ’70s and put some lush electric guitars on top of that sound.”

“It was very organic. Originally, we were gonna do a couple of songs…we just delved in to knock out a whole record back in March.”

“It was basically like painting in the studio, this record more so, because it was just so many beautiful layers of colors. It’s just pure musicianship and beautiful songwriting.”

Kretz also seemed to suggest that the band are planning to promote the record with a different kind of touring, but there is not too many details regarding that.
