Power Trip Announces Plans To Return With New Singer

Headline News

Texan crossover thrash metal band Power Trip has announced plans to return to the stage later this year. Vocalist Riley Gale suddenly passed away in August 2020 and the future of the band was uncertain for the following years. The group made a surprise live return in December 2023 with Seth Gilmore on vocals. An update from the band has confirmed plans for more shows later this year with Gilmore behind the mic.

“Nearly four years ago to the day, unbeknownst to us, we would perform for the last time as Power Trip.

“It has been a difficult road since then, marked by deep pain, grief, and everything else that came with losing our brother Riley.

“We know this can’t be undone, and it will always remain part of us. We have thought deeply about the future of Power Trip and what always comes back to us is that this band was founded on resilience, perseverance, and most importantly: a love for the music and for all of the people it has brought us closer to along the way.

“We’ll never have the words to convey our appreciation of the enduring support we’ve received over the years, and we feel as though the time is right to get back on stage for all of you who’ve been there throughout our existence as a band.

With that, we are excited to announce a round of upcoming 2024 performances starting with No Values on June 8th in SoCal.

“Joining us will be our long-time close friend/collaborator, and singer of Fugitive/Skourge—Seth Gilmore—who will be handling vocals for these upcoming shows.

Stay tuned, more info on the way…

“Riley Gale Forever.

Power Trip Forever.

See you in the pit.
