A new chapter begins for SKID ROW. After more than two years away from the stage and an extensive global search, legendary hard rock band SKID ROW have officially announced JUSTIN SARGENT as the new lead singer, ushering in an exciting new era as the band celebrates its 40th anniversary. And in a fitting twist of fate, after searching around the world, Skid Row found their new voice right where it all began - in their home state of New Jersey.
Sargent first caught the attention of the band last year. His powerful vocals, commanding stage presence, and natural connection to the music immediately stood out. What followed were months of conversations, rehearsals, and time spent together, ultimately confirming that the band had found not just a new singer, but a brother-in-arms.

To celebrate the announcement, SKID ROW have unleashed a powerful new recording of the classic THE WHO anthem ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again,’ accompanied by an electrifying new music video.

The track serves as both an introduction to SKID ROW’s new frontman Sargent and a bold statement of intent as the band looks toward the future. Produced and recorded by Grammy Award-winning producer Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Rush, Halestorm, Alice In Chains), the recording reunites SKID ROW with the acclaimed producer behind the band's 2022 studio album, ‘The Gang's All Here’.
With its explosive energy, unmistakable riffs, and powerhouse vocals, SKID ROW’s interpretation of ‘Won't Get Fooled Again’ pays tribute to one of rock's most influential bands while bringing the group's own signature intensity to the timeless anthem.
