KORN Guitarist Welcomes Baby Son

November 7, 2012

KORN guitarist James "Munky" Shaffer and his wife Evis Xheneti (pictured below) welcomed their first child, D'Angelo Draxon Shaffer, today (Wednesday, November 7) at 8:44 a.m. He weighed in at eight pounds and three ounces.

The couple were engaged in May 2011 and married earlier this year in Paris.

Shaffer also has a daughter named Carmella Star from his first marriage.

The guitarist said in a recent interview that he was looking forward to becoming a dad again and told The Pulse Of Radio that he was inspired by ex-KORN guitarist Brian "Head" Welch and his daughter when they all got together in May. "His daughter is really — what a sweetheart," he said. "He's an amazing father. Like, I'm looking forward to being half that good as a father. I am a father, but I get another go at it."
