Sevendust and Alter Bridge Members Collaborate Together in New Band

Sevendust guitarist John Connolly and bassist Vince Hornsby have joined forced with Alter Bridge / Creed drummer Scott Phillips and vocalist Eric “Erock” Friedman to form a new project called Projected.

Connolly describes the sound of Projected by saying that it's "not super heavy ... somewhere closer to Foo Fighters / A Perfect Circle. It's sorta heavy, just not real metal. I guess. The songs are pretty badass, though."
