After posting an open call for band members on his official Facebook page and receiving over a thousand applications, Carl Barât has now finalized the line-up for his new band, The Jackals. Members consist of Billy Tessio on guitar, Adam Claxton on bass, and Jay Bone on drums.
Their live debut will be 15 May at XOYO in London, with support from Lois & the Love and Trampolene. Tickets go on sale at 9 am GMT on Friday, 11 April.
Despite already finishing recording his second solo album with Joby Ford, Barât ultimately decided that he was happier playing in a band and took to social media to recruit members. Also, he decided to hold off on releasing the album and plans to rerecord it with his new band for a September release. The working title was "Let It Reign" but it remains to be seen if it will change since it's no longer a solo album.
