Incubus Guitarist Mike Einziger Denies Talk of Pearl Jam Guest Appearance

His initial tweet showed a photo of himself with his girlfriend and Eddie Vedder in the studio and it read, “In the studio with my girl and Eddie Vedder, recording strings for Pearl Jam’s new album.” However, Einziger has since clarified that it was his girlfriend, accomplished violinist Ann Marie Simpson, and not himself that was lending a hand in recording.
Einziger offered a pair of tweets that cleared up the confusion. They read as follows:
Hello information superhighway. I am NOT contributing to @pearljam new album. My girl played on a song and I stopped by the studio to watch.

So media outlets, please stop announcing that I am playing on @pearljam new album. NOT TRUE.

Apparently the guitarist was just around to lend support while Simpson recorded violin parts during the session. However, it is believed that Einziger’s other recent tweet about working with Hans Zimmer on the score for the upcoming summer blockbuster ‘The Lone Ranger’ is legit.
