PlanetMosh had the privilege of chatting with the charismatic frontman Chris Jericho of US metal crew, Fozzy ahead of their upcoming UK Tour (See dates below).

Interview by Miley Stevens

Fozzy are deeply proud of their fans, and like how they don’t conform to the metalhead stereotype. “We take great pride in the reputation we have for high-energy electric rock and roll fans“. Jericho did mention how their track ‘Lights Go Out’ had an unexpected accolade in the US Charts: “Lights Go Out was number one on the Strip Club Charts in the US – our song was number one for the amount of strippers who danced to our song! […] it’s the vibe that we have, it’s music you can dance to and have fun“

Upon asking Jericho what advice he would give to listeners who were torn between two dreams, he said “Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do it – I’m now doing both my dreams at the highest levels and it’s because I didn’t give up, I didn’t care what anyone thought about me“.
