WILL HAVEN ANNOUNCES NEW VOCALIST!

The reunited Will Haven are sad to announce the departure of founding member, vocalist Grady Avenell. Grady will be returning home to focus his energy on his family. Will Haven guitarist Jeff Irwin had the following to say on the matter, "It was a very tough decision for Grady to make but of course, family comes first and we totally respect his decision. He is still a part of the band as far as helping write material for the new record, he just isn’t able to tour with us. We want to promote this record as much as we can which means a lot of touring, so we had to make the tough decision of moving forward with a new vocalist.”


Moving forward, the band is proud to welcome longtime friend and California punk/hardcore scene favorite Jeff Jaworski (previously of Roadrunner Records band RED TAPE) into the fold. . “We are very excited to have Jeff Jaworski in the band. He is an amazing frontman, with an equally amazing voice and is one of our closest friends. He has added so much to Will Haven in the short time he has been with us,” adds Irwin. Jaworski will bring his high-energy attack to the WILL HAVEN sound on their upcoming album, entitled HEIROPHANT, expected to be released this summer through Bieler Bros. Records. The effort is being produced by Chino Moreno (DEFTONES) and Shaun Lopez (FAR, THE REVOLUTION SMILE). The tracks — "Helena ", "Sheppard's Bush" and "Landing on Ice" among others— are heralded as "groundbreaking" by the band and "by far the best stuff we have ever done."


“Years back I got to fill-in for Mike on a 2 week tour, and became very intimate with the Will Haven sound,” says Jaworski. ”Grady is the man, and it's too bad he had to bow out of this, especially when the band is writing some of their best music ever!” He adds of his longtime connection to the Will Haven camp “Red Tape did our first tour with Will Haven back in 2001. We go even further back as friends though... back to the SOCK days! Whether as a fan, laying down vox on the WHVN track "Jaworski", or going out on tours with them... I've always felt like I was a part of this band. I'm pumped to get this great new music out to the fans & usher in a new era of Will Haven. I'm not likening this to Sammy Hagar joining Van Halen... think more like Brian Johnson joining AC/DC!”


The revitalized group is looking forward to the future. “ We are taking this as a new era of Will Haven and we are very excited about it,” says Irwin. “We are ready to take over the world!" . To that end, Will Haven hit the road with The Deftones in Europe in late March.
