Skid Row<\/a>\u00a0are looking for the next in a long, storied lineage of lead\u00a0singers \u2014 and it could be you.<\/p>\n The rockers have partnered with online music retailer Sweetwater to launch a worldwide search for their new vocalist. The\u00a0auditions open today and will conclude only when Skid Row has found the right singer to usher them into a new era.<\/p>\n “This is not a contest or a gimmick,” the band said in a statement. “It’s a genuine search for the right voice, presence and authenticity to carry Skid Row forward.”<\/p>\n READ MORE: The\u00a0Best Grunge Song by 5 Hair Metal Bands<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Hopeful singers can submit their Skid Row auditions through Sweetwater’s website<\/a>.\u00a0After introducing themselves with a short bio and making a case for why they should be the band’s next singer, they’ll have to\u00a0include videos of them singing the band’s hit songs “18 and Life” and “Monkey Business” (“to showcase your range and presence”).<\/p>\n Submissions will be reviewed directly by Skid Row, their management and Sweetwater. The band will reach out to promising candidates at the email they provided.<\/p>\n Skid Row has had no shortage of lead singers over the past four decades. Sebastian Bach<\/a> fronted the band during its most successful tenure, resulting in the multi-platinum albums\u00a0Skid Row<\/a><\/em> and\u00a0Slave to the Grind<\/a><\/em> as well as 1995’s\u00a0Subhuman Race<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n After Bach’s departure and a hiatus, Skid Row reformed in 1999 with new lead singer Johnny Solinger. Solinger held the position until 2015, when he was replaced briefly by Tony Harnell and then ZP Theart of Dragonforce<\/a>.<\/p>\n H.E.A.T. frontman and Swedish Idol<\/em> winner Erik Gronwall replaced Theart in 2022, singing on Skid Row’s\u00a0The Gang’s All Here<\/a><\/em>. He quit in 2024 due to health issues that limited his ability to tour. Halestorm<\/a> lead singer Lzzy Hale<\/a> filled in with the band for a handful of 2024 dates.<\/p>\n Although many fans have clamored for Skid Row to reunite with Bach,\u00a0the band has repeatedly said it’s not going to happen.<\/p>\n “We\u00a0have a couple guys on our radar that we’re pretty excited about,”\u00a0Skid Row bassist Rachel Bolan said in a recent interview<\/a>. “So hopefully before the end of the year, we’ll be back out on the road.”<\/p>\n See the full list of former Skid Row singers \u2014 and where they are now \u2014 below:<\/em><\/p>\n The band has kept a revolving door over the years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Gallery Credit: Bryan Rolli<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nHow to Audition to Be Skid Row’s New Singer<\/h3>\n
