SIN CITY SINNERS vocalist Todd Kerns, who is now the bassist in Slash's touring band, is featured in a new interview with RockMusicStar.com. An excerpt is available below.

RMS: Congratulations on your new gig as the bassist for Slash’s new band. You must be very excited about that.

Kerns: "Yeah, it’s pretty rad. Yesterday, we were sitting here at rehearsal going over the tracks and all of a sudden Steven Adler walks in. That was quite surreal (laughs)."

RMS: No shit!

Kerns: "It was one of those moments were you go, wow this is really great. But the gig with Slash has been a lot of fun, a real blast. It one of those crazy experiences that comes out of nowhere. So it’s now time to roll with it."

RMS: It sounds like Slash has put a great band together. He didn’t go and get super big all-star A-list names. But instead, he assembles a group of lesser known, talented musicians.

Kerns: "Apparently, he was looking to do something fresh. For such an accomplished guy, he really wanted to find some fresh, new people to play with. When you play with new people it gives you a new charge. The guitarist, Bobby Schneck previously played with Slash in his blues band."

RMS: Are you rehearsing for a tour, or are you just getting ready for your upcoming TV appearances?

Kerns: "There is going to be a quick Australian run and then some other things after that. Of which I still haven’t officially… I’m still up to my ears in the Sin City Sinners presently, so we are trying to make the best of everything here. But, we are trying to make everything work. The thing about the Sinners is that we have always been a creature doing something challenging, different and fun."
