There's been some confusion about who is in the new Live 2.0 lineup - where's Robin Diaz? Who's the new drummer? Who recorded Lady Bhang? {The credits on Spotify just say "Live and Dean DeLeo")
Due to some sleuthing, I found an interview with Ed on CelebrityAccess that appears to confirm that the new drummer is Johnny Radelat.
“I’m so excited for our fans to hear LIVE’s first new release in six years with “Lady Bhang (She Got Me Rollin’),” says +LIVE+ founder Ed Kowalczyk. “It was such a blast to produce this totally “in-house” with LIVE’s Zak Loy (lead guitar) and Nick Jay (keyboards) producing, with otherworldly rhythm section grooves by LIVE’s Johnny Radelat (drums) and Chris Heerlein (bass)… and last but not least, the mystical slide guitar-stylings of the incredible Dean DeLeo of STP! We can’t wait to play it onstage this summer with Dean as we share the stage for a nationwide tour with Stone Temple Pilots! Lyrically, it’s that last cocktail before closing time, that final lap of a race that’s gone on too long…the song is also a kind of thank-you letter to the late Junior Kimbrough and his hill-country brethren for all the inspiration they have given me over the years with their unique and strikingly original blues music. Enjoy, and see you on the road!”
DeLeo adds, “Love the track and loved playing on it. Thank you for letting me be a part of it.”
