February 18, 2009, 15 years ago
It was announced back in 2006 that ex-McAULEY SCHENKER GROUP Robin McAuley has been tapped as the new singer for long suffering rock act SURVIVOR, replacing Jimi Jamison. The band is currently working on a new album.
McAuley has issued the following statement: “I’m very excited at this opportunity to sing for Survivor. I c an only hope the Survivor fans give me a fighting chance. Frankie and I have worked together in the past I am extremely excited to start writing with him again and playing with a great bunch of guys. This new Survivor promises to be full of energy, and with such a stable of awesome tunes to pick from, who knows what each show will bring. I’m ready!”
Meanwhile, guitarist/founding member Frankie Sullivan comments on McAuley coming on board in a new press release:“When we made the decision to replace Jimi Jamison, I had no idea what we would do. Then it hit me--Robin McAuley! Is he available? How can he possibly be available?! Can I be lucky yet again in my career to work with such a talented singer? Well, the short answer, he was available, we gave him the songs of a set list we would perform, he came to the Windy City and blew our socks off! Robin is a pure pleasure to work with and he’s such a great person. With Robin, what you see is what you get. And boy do you get it!”
