Warwick Artist Johny Chow is a true hard rock soldier, having recorded and performed with some of the biggest names in hard rock and metal. His work with Cavalera Conspiracy, George Lynch, Fireball Ministry, Soulfly and many others drew the attention of the members of chart topping US rock band Stone Sour, who, after the departure of their bassist Shawn Economaki in mid-2012, chose Johny as a full time touring member of the band.
The three-time Grammy nominated band, whose eponymous 2004 record reached gold status, consists of Skipknot members Corey Taylor and Jim Root, as well as guitarist Josh Rand and drummer Roy Mayorga.
Wielding his custom shop Streamer Stage II Warwick basses, Johny'a solid, powerhouse bass style has brought a new dimension to Stone Sour's sound, with audiences and critics sounding an overwhelmingly positive response to his work. Johny's steamroller bass technique requires a deep, complex tone that always cuts through the mix, and only Warwick basses offer the sound, feel, and unsurpassed quality construction that he needs as a world-class touring musician.
The band is preparing to tour in support of their latest release The House of Gold and Bones - Part 2 (Roadrunner) a 2-part concept record whose first part was released last year to critical acclaim and international radio play. The record was released on March 26th, 2013 and the band will kick off a US tour on April 2nd, with European dates to follow later in the summer.
Check the upcoming tour dates in USA and Europe below and make sure to witness Johny and the Stone Sour crew bring audiences to a new level of energetic and powerful rock!
