Skid Row release Johnny Solinger and announce Tony Harnell (TNT) as new singer
PRESS RELEASE: SKID ROW and Solinger split.
New York, NY – After 14 years of touring and 4 releases, SKID ROW has released singer Johnny Solinger.
Founding member Snake Sabo said, “We had a lot of great times together and created a lot of great music. We wish him nothing but the best.”
“Sometimes things just end. People go in different directions and grow apart and you have to make a decision. He will always be our brother” adds co-founder Rachel Bolan.
The vacancy for a new front man has been filled by powerhouse vocalist Tony Harnell. This news comes hot of the heels of his departure from Norway based band, TNT. “Tony’s experience, power and undeniable range made our decision an easy one” commented guitarist Scotti Hill. Drummer Rob Hammersmith added, “I believe this will be a great year for SKID ROW. I’m looking forward for things to come.”
When asked about joining forces with SKID ROW Harnell said, “I’m so excited and honored to be a part of such a great band with an amazing legacy and legions of faithful fans! The guys and I have known each other for many years and this is such a natural fit. I look forward to getting out there and playing live together and being a part of making new music and creating our future together. It’s time to rock!”
The band will head into the studio to record the third chapter of the United World Rebellion trilogy this summer. They will also hit the road for another world tour in support.

Fans would best recognize Harnell’s amazing voice and incredible vocal range in the TNT signature songs “10,000 Lovers In One” and “Everyone’s a Star” as heard below.
It will surely be refreshing to hear the classic Skid Row songs with Tony’s ability to hit those mega high notes cleanly. Harnell is also known for being a student of the voice and having the ability to also sing in key even in the highest of ranges
