While former Soundgarden & Audioslave frontman Chris Cornell was holed up in the studio with producer-of-the-moment Timbaland in early 2008, three members of his band used their downtime to join forces and breath life into a brand new group - Run Through The Desert (RTTD).
Accomplished and sought-after musicians who have built impressive careers recording and touring with some of the world's top artists, guitarist Yogi Lonich (ex-Buckcherry, The Wallflowers), drummer Jason Sutter (ex-American Hi-Fi, Smash Mouth) and bassist Corey McCormick ( ex-The Big Pill, Magnetico) have created much more than a mere side-project. Run Through The Desert fuses elements of classic, psychedelic and alternative rock to produce an eclectic and hypnotic mix of pounding drums, blistering guitar solos, solid bass rhythms and melodic vocals.

The as yet untitled album is due for release this autumn. In the meantime, the three bandmembers continue their "day jobs" with Cornell this summer on the Projekt Revolution tour across the US. Dates below:
