WHO ARE CROSSBONE SKULLY?
Crossbone Skully are a gritty hard rock band led by Tommy Henriksen (Alice Cooper, Hollywood Vampires), featuring fellow Alice Cooper guitarist Anna “Blackthorn” Cara and a revolving cast of Rock n’ Roll Misfits.
The band have entered their next era with announcing their sophomore album ‘Condemned to Rock n’ Roll’ via earMUSIC, available on 29th January 2027. While ‘Thunder Love (feat Phil Collen)’ introduced the album with all the energy of a proper rock n’ roll anthem, the second single ‘Riding With Angels’ takes a more reflective and nostalgic turn. These two songs display two different sides of ‘Condemned to Rock n’ Roll’ and give a first taste of everything still to come.
Collaborator Phil Collen, of Def Leppard fame, has high praise for the band’s new music and diverse sound:
“Tommy’s got a powerful rock voice, but what really stands out is how versatile he is. He can shape his voice to fit whatever a song needs, and that’s a rare gift. He brings incredible energy to everything he does, which makes him so easy to collaborate with. He and Mutt share the same philosophy: it’s all about the vibe. When you get that right, everything else falls into place, and I think that’s a big part of what makes Crossbone Skully unique.”
The new record sees Henriksen continue his collaboration with acclaimed engineers Olle Romo and Mike Plotnikoff, mastering engineer Howie Weinberg and legendary hitmaker Mutt Lange who returns as executive producer, while enlisting Grammy nominated Jay Ruston to mix the record.
Their critically acclaimed debut album ‘Evil World Machine’ featuring hit singles ‘High On You feat. Nikki Sixx’, ‘The Boom Went The Boom feat. Phil Collen’, ‘Everyone’s On Dope’ and ‘I’m Unbreakable’, made a bold statement and led the band to gain a cult following worldwide that continues to grow, so join the ‘Misfits of the Universe’ and get ready for “Thing #2” of Crossbone Skully driven by heart, guts and their outlaw spirit.
