Former Ozzy Osbourne and Badlands guitarist Jake E. Lee is back after over a decade in seclusion and is in search of a vocalist to tour behind his upcoming solo record.

In the process of recording his new record in Las Vegas' very hot Hideout Studios, a private recording studio run by Canadian-bred producer Kevin Churko, Lee's new release will feature a combination of legendary rock artists and some of the biggest names of new metal. Already recorded are guest appearances by Robin Zander (Cheap Trick), Paul D'ianno (Iron Maiden), Maria Brink (In This Moment) and many other big names.

The new vocalist will sing at least one track on the new record and will tour the world starting in late spring 2013.

The lucky vocalist must be capable of singing a couple of Ozzy Osbourne and Badlands songs plus songs from the new album while still having a strong enough identity to be able carry the band into the future, as Jake will head straight back into the studio after the touring to begin a new album with the new band.

To audition for the Jake E. Lee vocalist position send an email to Ronnie@HideoutLV.com complete with an MP3 of yourself singing an Ozzy Osbourne or Badlands song. Then submit one other song or video of your choosing that you feel best represents who you are as an artist. Check out Badlands' High Wire to see the range required for this gig. Only those vocalists that really fit what Jake E. Lee is looking for will be contacted.
