In a recent interview with Scotty J of Rock Titan, Wes Scantlin, the lead vocalist and songwriter of PUDDLE OF MUDD, revealed that he has been considering the idea of creating a country record.
He said: “I’ve been throwing around the idea of doing like a sort of country record, kind of just maybe take a little stab at it. We’ll see what’s up.”
“It’s gonna be a very diverse record,’ he continued. “It’s not gonna be just country. It’ll have a lot of different stuff and it’ll just be like a solo — kind of a solo thing for me to do. A ‘solo artist,’ as they say.
“I could sing country. I could sing that type of style all day long, man, just like effortlessly.”
Wes experienced a continuous stream of issues with the law, alcohol, finances, and various other matters before asserting that he achieved sobriety in 2017. Scantlin acknowledged that he returned to rehab and sought treatment as he felt there were no other viable options. He attributed his ability to strive for improvement to the support and encouragement of his family and fans.
PUDDLE OF MUDD‘s latest album, Ubiquitous, was released in September via Pavement Entertainment.
