“Tonight will forever go down as one of the greatest moments I’ve ever had on stage when my mother came out to sing ‘Zombie’ with me in front of all of our friends and family at the PNC Bank Arts Center in New Jersey. Momma Vext was the lead vocalist in the church choir every Christmas, so you may say it runs in the family,” Vext reflected in an instagram post following the performance.
He adds, “I love you, mom. You’re everything that is the best in me. Thank you for believing in me when I didn’t believe in myself. Thank you for teaching me patience and grace under fire. Thank you for reminding me that life is an occasion when we rise to it.”
Bad Wolves have seen a banner year as the breakout rock band of 2018. Coming off their platinum single, “Zombie,” the band’s latest single “Hear Me Now” (featuring Diamante) is rising towards the Top 10 on the Active Rock radio charts.
Bad Wolves are currently wrapping up their summer tour with Five Finger Death Punch, Breaking Benjamin, and Nothing More. The band will continue to tour extensively throughout the end of the year, including a trek across Europe with Three Days Grace this fall, joining Five Finger Death Punch, Breaking Benjamin, and From Ashes to New on their U.S. Fall arena tour, and an arena tour through Canada this winter with Three Days Grace and Nothing More.
