Brett Allen Scallions (born on December 21, 1971 in Brownsville, Tennessee) is an American musician. He was the lead vocalist for the band Fuel from 1993 to 2006.[1] During that time, the band released multiple albums including the double platinum Something Like Human. He left the band because of personal reasons and disagreements in the band, not from a torn ligament in his throat as previously reported.
After Scallions left Fuel, he joined a band called The X's playing bass. The X's released one album before going on "hiatus." He also recently joined Circus Diablo, a Los Angeles-based rock band while simultaneously playing with the X's.
In March 2007, Scallions was selected as the singer for "Riders on the Storm," a project featuring former The Doors members Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek.
[edit] Future Plans
“Jonathan Mover who played drums on the first Fuel record, he and I are doing a record together where I am doing the bulk of the writing, I’ll be singing it, and playing guitar, and I’ll have some guest guitar players come in. It’s very exciting for me; it’s a record I’ve dreamed of doing for a really long time.”
The band name has not yet been revealed.
“We’ve got a few names in the hat right now, but I’m reluctant to say any of them right now because I wanna make sure that we have the name ready to go when it comes time to put it out.
