As Sevendust strategy their thirtieth birthday, you’ll assume that singer Lajon Witherspoon can be beginning to decelerate, or not less than noticing the consequences of time on his voice. Not solely is that not the case however the reverse is seemingly true: Witherspoon’s voice is growing older like wine. Whereas making an look on the Chuck Schute podcast, the singer was requested if he observed any limitations on his voice attributable to growing older (by way of Blabbermouth).

“I’ve observed that my voice has gotten stronger as I’ve gotten older. Simply with something, I really feel like — as an athlete, you get in your prime… I don’t know what you essentially name it, however I positively really feel extra conditioned once I go in. And that may very well be, too, working with different writers and staying on prime of the sport and being recent and taking the craft severely when it’s time to get to work.”

Final month, guitarist John Connolly talked about the truth that Sevendust received’t proceed to tour as intensely as they did after they have been beginning out.

I feel for us, it’s simply discovering that steadiness and simply having the ability to spend — I don’t wanna say spend much less time on tour, however I feel the objective is to spend extra time with our households, whether or not that be at house or on tour or wherever. I imply, plenty of our youngsters are going off to high school. So the household time has to have an enormous half in all of our lives. When Sevendust began, we didn’t have households, we didn’t have mortgages, we didn’t have children, we didn’t have any of that stuff, there was no accountability. So it’s tremendous straightforward to only go one hundred pc and work out what’s Sevendust? We didn’t know what we have been after we first began.”
