Absolutely not. This is just a cover band and I'm sure the members of AIC are not interested in having a Layne copycat in the band. That would be such a stupid move and like an insult to Layne if you think about it...and just because a singer has a similar voice to Layne's that doesn't mean he can fit in the band as a person. This guy here is also too young for AIC...let him stay in AIC cover or tribute bands only.
AIC already has a good singer. They wouldn't want someone who sounds like the last singer. And, they didn't want someone who tried to emulate Layne. They want to have a new sound, and create something new. The new guy is a lyricist and guitarist in his own right. This guy is a good singer but his natural voice is actually quite different from Staley.
I've been a listener of chains since my early days. Just a opinion but I enjoy hearing bands do there best rendition of in my opinion the greatest band ever.
I saw this group in my town at a little bar a few months ago. It was there last show together as a cover band. I was bored with nothing to do so I took a risk and decided, why not see an Alice In Chains cover band. The ticket was super cheap. They started playing, everyone there looked at each other with wide eyes. This lead singer gave me goosebumps. I couldn’t believe how amazingly close he sounds to Layne Staley. And this video does not even compare to how good this guy is in person!!! Wish this cover band was still together😏
i dont support the idea, but i'd like jerry to contact him to arrange a few appearances in their tours, and sing a few songs from the Layne era. Thats all i ask for.
This kid is freaking me out. ..holy 💩 I've been a fan since like 91 so I'm very attuned to Layne awesome exactly like Layne comes out of him n gives me a freaky feeling
YEZZ KEEP THAT BEAUTIFUL LEGACY ALIVE!! Y’ALL ARE DOING GREAT!! AIC IS MY FAVORITE OF ALL TIME!! NOW MY GRANDSON IS LEARNING GUTIAR & SINGING & HAS THE PASSION LOVE AND RESPECT FOR THE ORIGINAL AIC AS WELL! LAYNE LIVES FOREVER IN OUT HEARTS AND MEMORIES! THANK YOU 🙏♥️🦋
Bassist knew exactly what he was doing, just gonna throw that out there. Vocals are gnar, don’t know I can say the same about the guitarist and drummer here
I'll tell you..just seen a clip and thought..oh just another wanna be that probably won't sound close...well my jaw dropped..been watching a lot of videos of different songs...this dude sounds just like him...AIC had their singer but this guy would bring that unique sound back
Hes singing until the chorus and then its really Layne Stakey singinh the choris. Why cant anyone else hear this. He sounds good but hes using the real lyrics from Layne in certain parts of the song. Damn. I wanna hear this kid sing live without the band just do interview and sing right there and see what he sounds like? The band is terrible
I happen to know a band that would compliment this guy perfect and all they need is a singer. They are called Alice in Chains

At reggies in September of 19?

I think this guy is happy with his band so why would he need a new one 😋
That would be awesome, but I know the singer Brendan personally and he even told me once that he would never do it.

Singer: 10 out of 10. Holy sh*t! Band: 5 out of 10. We're missing some Cantrell harmonies & guitar here.
Band 2 out of 10
@@ccunit666 Lol. Yeah, I just suck at playing, so if you can at least play the song, you're probably better than me, so I'll give you a 5. 🤣

Me too, I Saw them at the Forge a few years ago. He is great!
Was that in Pekin, IL by chance?
So glad Brendan is back!
Jerry come on give him the gig this kid has got the range and the power
Fuck No! William DuVall is the real deal and the only lead vocalist fit for AIC after Layne. Not even close.
tism
I wish was Brendan was the singer for AIC! :(
The band said they auditioned singers that sounded just like Layne but it just made them sad.
i dont support the idea, but i'd like jerry to contact him to arrange a few appearances in their tours, and sing a few songs from the Layne era. Thats all i ask for.
@@user-up1nv3qk3f me too
@@tpp5151 When and what interview was this said?
@@user-up1nv3qk3f Sameee
Singer hit the nail in the head with Laynes voice and stage presence!!
But why this drummer was rushing it
Laid it back my man..
I need a singer for an Alice in Chains tribute. I need this guy in MA!
Probably the best singer I’ve heard ever cover AIC
You know Layne ain't gonna dieeeeeeeeeeeaahh!
This kid is freaking me out. ..holy 💩 I've been a fan since like 91 so I'm very attuned to Layne awesome exactly like Layne comes out of him n gives me a freaky feeling
You got a new fan!!! Really impressive
A WOHA, YEZZZ CHILD AMAZING VOCALS... SOUNDS LIKE LAYNES SOUND HAS TRANSCENDED THROUGH YOU!! AMAZING, THANK YOU 🙏🦋🎶🕊
Layne is ain't gonna dieee!!
YEZZ KEEP THAT BEAUTIFUL LEGACY ALIVE!! Y’ALL ARE DOING GREAT!! AIC IS MY FAVORITE OF ALL TIME!! NOW MY GRANDSON IS LEARNING GUTIAR & SINGING & HAS THE PASSION LOVE AND RESPECT FOR THE ORIGINAL AIC AS WELL!
LAYNE LIVES FOREVER IN OUT HEARTS AND MEMORIES! THANK YOU 🙏♥️🦋
Layne Staley es inmortal:')
goddamn holyshit,.he sings like layne staley,.good job bro,.👍👍👍
Wow his voice is insane, great cover!!
this is so good
Amazing. Sounds like Layne.
Freakin awesome.

Brenden was bad ass with Skorned! Yeah he needs a new band! AIC is hiring!
This dude is really good. With some vocal lessons. Would 💯% sound spot on . But truely amazing 🙌
Man... Incrible
Layne is that you? :o
Singer 10 band 2..negative 2
I'll tell you..just seen a clip and thought..oh just another wanna be that probably won't sound close...well my jaw dropped..been watching a lot of videos of different songs...this dude sounds just like him...AIC had their singer but this guy would bring that unique sound back
This dude is Layne reincarnated!
Holy fuck fire the current singer and hire this guy, back in business
this guy is in a wrong band
Gotta listen to the Upchurch version of rooster and nutshell. He blows this guy out of the water, with his sound.
No, nope. Not even.
Not even close, Upchurch did good but this man right here gave me absolute goosebumps. I'd almost think it was Layne singing if I wasn't watching.
No fucking way. Youre just biased
This is also live and Upchurch was in a studio. Let this kid record in a Studio then judge the two.
Not even close

From 6years ago...he looks really bored at this point.
