“SNAFU Le Tour” Tour Dates
SALIVA‘s founding guitarist Wayne Swinny died three months ago while on tour with the group. On March 22, SALIVA shared a statement on Facebook in which the band said that Swinny had been found that morning “in medical distress.” Paramedics were called and the musician was transported to hospital “where he was diagnosed with a Spontaneous Hemorrhage in his brain.”
When the remaining members of SALIVA announced their plans to continue in April, they released a statement via social media in which they said: “We miss Wayne beyond measure, but we know that he would want us to keep making music and sharing it with our fans, and to keep his spirit alive through our performances. We are grateful for the love and support from Wayne‘s family, fans, and friends. Rest in peace, Wayne. You will be missed, but your music will live on forever.”
This past March, it was announced that singer Ryan McCombs had rejoined DROWNING POOL. The longtime SOIL front-man, who has lived in Swindon, England since 2018, originally joined DROWNING POOL in 2005 and appeared on two of the band’s studio albums, “Full Circle” (2007) and “Drowning Pool” (2010), as well as a live album, 2009’s “Loudest Common Denominator”. He rejoined SOIL after exiting DROWNING POOL in 2011. McCombs will continue to front SOIL and will perform with both bands moving forward.
DROWNING POOL‘s first new record since 2016, “Strike A Nerve”, came out last September via T-Boy/UMe. It marked the band’s third album with singer Jasen Moreno, who joined DROWNING POOL in 2012.
