A month after iconic singer Dee Snider resigned from Twisted Sister due to “health challenges,” the group announced on Tuesday (March 3) that their planned 50th anniversary run of shows will still take place with another legendary hard rocker stepping in to handle lead vocals.
“Twisted Sister members Jay Jay French and Eddie Ojeda are thrilled to announce that iconic vocalist and front man Sebastian Bach will be fronting the band for a handful of select dates this fall,” the band’s longtime guitarists said in a statement. “These appearances do not affect or conflict with Sebastian’s current or future solo touring schedule, which remains fully intact”; Bach reposted the announcement on his Instagram page.
At press time the band had not announced the full roster of shows for its golden anniversary outing outside of a Sept. 4 stop at the Alaska State Fair.
The news came a month after the “I Wanna Rock” band announced that Snider, 70, was forced to resign from the group due to “a series of health challenges“; Snider suffers from degenerative arthritis, which has required multiple operations, as well as heart issues exacerbated by life on the road. That led to the cancellation of shows that were scheduled to take place in Sao Paolo, Brazil on April 25 and run through the summer. At the time, they said that their touring future would be “determined in the next several weeks.”
Coincidentally, Skid Row announced a month ago that they were launching a worldwide search for their next lead vocalist. The group founded in Toms River, New Jersey in 1986 with singer Matt Fallon — who was replaced by Bach the next year — was led by Bach through 1996, after which a series of lead singers have filled his shoes including Johnny Solinger (1999-2015) and a series of four short-time vocalists over the past decade, including Halestorm’s Lzzy Hale in 2024.
Twisted Sister is best known for their 1984 anthem “We’re Not Gonna Take It,” which hit No. 21 on the Billboard Hot 100; the song appeared on the band’s third studio album, Stay Hungry, which peaked at No. 15 on the Billboard 200.
