John 5 explains “This song is called “Strung Out” because I am so obsessed with playing guitar that when I donโt play and create new music for a while, I start to go a little insane.”ย
He adds, “Thereโll be more Creatures shows sometime in the near future and I really look forward to playing this song live.”
About John 5
In October 2022, it was announced that John 5 would be joining Mรถtley Crรผe as their guitarist following the announcement that Mick Mars would be retiring. John 5 will be seen in 2023 with Mรถtley Crรผe on THE WORLD TOUR with Def Leppard which will kick off with Latin American dates in February before moving on to Europe in the summer. John said of the news, โIโm honored to carry on Mickโs legacy and am looking forward to playing these songs.โ
In 2015, following a series of web shows to celebrate the release of his solo album Careful With That Axe, John 5 decided to take his solo set on tour, and formed The Creatures band to support his live shows. Initially joined by long-term friend Rodger Carter on drums, the band continues touring to this day, and now work as a unit on 5โs solo albums, including Season Of The Witch, the live album Itโs Alive, Invasion and 2021โs Sinner. The current line-up includes John 5, Ian Ross on bass and drummer Alejandro (Alex) Mercado.
John 5 has also contributed to the work of iconic artists such as Lynyrd Skynrd, Meatloaf, Ricky Martin and Rod Stewart, amongst many others. โIโm busy, constantly busy with work but I look at who I am in the studio with or sending music to and I think I donโt ever want it to stop.”
