The band, dubbed Scott Weiland And The Wildabouts, will be releasing their Rick Parker (The Dandy Worhols, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Jewel) produced album, "Blaster," on March 31st.

Apart from Weiland, the group features guitar player Jeremy Brown, bassist Tommy Black, and drummer Danny Thompson. Weiland had this to say about the album, "The album has its own distinctive sound, but it also can entice those Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver fans who have stuck by me.

"Over the years, I've gone back and forth between art records and being in a band. This is a hybrid. What we've come up with is really heavy, slinky, and sexy. There's a lot of fuzz. The best way to describe it is 'furry.'"

Prior to the album release, the band will be launching a North American tour on February 22 at Pub Rock in Scottsdale, AZ and have announced dates through March 14th in Boston at Brighton Music Hall.

They have also announced festival appearances this spring including the Welcome to Rockville Festival in Jacksonville, FL on April 25th, the Rock on the Range Festival in Columbus OH on May 16th and the BottleRock Music Festival in Napa Valley, CA on May 30th.
