New TNT Singer Speaks

May 17, 2006

SHY vocalist Tony Mills has issued the following statement regaridng his decision to join TNT as the band's new lead singer:

"Having been in discussions with the members of TNT in Norway over the last few weeks, I have decided to take the band up on an offer to front them throughout their forthcoming work in Europe. This may well include co-writing a new album for the band and touring in both Norway and the U.K. later in the year. Obviously, it's all new to everyone and we have to see how we work together, but the initial meeting in Berlin was very amiable and I think you could safely say that we 'hit it off' real well. I have to master THE ANDERSSON MILLS PROJECT and finish up some writing with Eric Ragno / Michael Riesenbeck and the CHINA BLUE project before I depart for Norway mid-June.

"SHY are supporting TNT at the Polar Festival on June 30 in Storsteinnes, Norway. This in itself is an unbelievable coincidence, but my priority was to sing this concert with SHY as I was already contracted to do so before any conversations took place with TNT. This concert for TNT will be fronted by the ex-vocalist Tony Harnell as a farewell show for him. Personally, I play a solo concert on July 1 with Ian Richardson and the members of WINTERSTRAIN in musical support. This show will consist of some SIAM material and some songs from CRUISER. Also, SHY will join me to play some acoustic material as well."

The new TNT lineup will perform at Z Rock 06 at JB's in Dudley, England on September 24, 2006. Also scheduled to appear are FIREHOUSE, TOBY JEPSON, BOB CATLEY, SNAKERYDER, LOST WEEKEND, DANTE FOX and EDEN.
