VIXEN Has 'A Bunch Of Demos' Recorded For New Album; Possible Live Release In The Works

More than three years after announcing their reunion, female rockers VIXEN have yet to begin tracking their comeback studio album. Drummer Roxy Petrucci told Totally Driven Radio: “We have a bunch of demos that we recorded, but we’re not there yet. It’s a timing thing. We’ve just gotta take the time and start buckling down and doing it. It’s just that everybody has lives going on too, so between playing live and then everybody going back to their homes, which is all over the place… We’ll get there. We’ll get there. We’re having a lot of fun, and we love doing the live stuff right now.”

Roxy also spoke about VIXEN‘s plans for the coming months. She said: “We are gonna start playing again. We took a little hiatus. March 25th, actually, is our first [show back]. We’re playing Toledo. We recorded some stuff on the ship [Monsters Of Rock cruise] for a possible live release, so we’re gonna see how that goes. But, yeah, we’re gearing up to go back on the road. We’re weekend warriors, but we plan on playing all summer long.”

Petrucci, singer Janet Gardner and bassist Share Ross honored their friend and bandmate, guitarist and founder of VIXEN, Jan Kuehnemund, by resurrecting VIXEN in 2013.

The band was committed to reunite in 2012 but Kuehnemund‘s cancer diagnosis caused what was thought of at the time as a delay. Sadly, however, after a fierce battle, Kuehnemund succumbed to her illness, thus the reunion was not meant to be.

After discussing the idea with friends and family as well as lead vocalist from VIXEN‘s most recent lineup, Jenna Sanz-Agero, it was agreed that it was the right decision for the three surviving definitive members to carry on as VIXEN.

Joining forces with their JSRG bandmate, guitarist Gina Stile, VIXEN is performing at select festivals and showcase dates.

Kuehnemund was only 51 years old at the time of her death.
