The rest of current Dead Daisies lineup includes former INXS vocalist Jon Stevens, Guns N’ Roses guitarist Richard Fortus, drummer Charley Drayton, Guns N’ Roses keyboardist Dizzy Reed and guitarist David Lowy.
“Really looking forward to heading out to the UK in November and touring alongside Black Star Riders,” Lowy stated on the band’s Facebook page. “We’ll miss playing with Marco, but we’re all glad he’ll still be on the same tour!
