Former Every Time I Die vocalist Keith Buckley has announced a new project, Many Eyes. Hatebreed‘s Jamey Jasta introduced Buckley to his two new bandmates, brothers Nick and Charlie Bellmore, who were formerly in Kingdom of Sorrow with Kirk Windstein of Crowbar, and more recently have played with Twisted Sister‘s Dee Snider and ex-Judas Priest singer Tim “Ripper” Owens. A message from Buckley on social media reads:
Dear you,
Sup. It’s me, Keith. Just wanted to let you know that I have a new band. It’s called Many Eyes. Two brothers named Charlie and Nick Bellmore play guitar and drums respectively. They also write, produce & record all the songs. I think they’re brilliant and I’m confident that you will too.
Jamey Jasta introduced me to them over a year ago and the three of us have not stopped writing since. Shout out to Jamey Jasta. He is, and always has been the realest.
Many Eyes marks the beginning of a new chapter in my story. One that promises to be significantly different from the ones that preceded it. It’ll be better… I’m better. I look forward to proving it, both on stage and off. See you out there.
Love, me…Keith
As Lambgoat points out, Tom Flynn posted on Facebook in September looking for extras for a new music video for Buckley, which he said he was filming on October 1 on Long Island.
Buckley has been teasing new music for a while now following the contentious breakup of Every Time I Die. Stay tuned.
Ex-ETID guitarist Jordan Buckley, bassist Stephen Micciche and drummer Clayton “Goose” Holyoak formed Better Lovers with recent ETID producer Will Putney and Greg Puciato of the now-defunct Dillinger Escape Plan. They recently announced a new Buffalo holiday show, BLissmass, which seems like a smaller-scale continuation of ETID’s Tid the Season, and are on the 2024 lineup for Sick New World, which was just announced.
