While She Sleeps in singer SOS

While She Sleeps have issued an SOS for a stand-in singer who can cover for Loz Taylor on the first dates of the Vans Warped Tour in the US.

He’s encountered visa problems and can’t leave the UK until they’re resolved, meaning the band must find a replacement.

They say: “Are you a vocalist? Can you scream? Do you want to sing with us?

“The US visa system is broken and Loz is stuck in the UK until it’s fixed. We need someone to do his job until then.”

Interested parties are asked to email matwelsh28@gmail.com.

While She Sleeps issued second album Brainwashed in March. The Vans Warped Tour kicks off this week, with a UK date on October 18.
