Jason McMaster isn’t Accept‘s new singer, but the traditional metal legends recruited Jason McMaster for a Pennsylvania concert, after the health issues (“virus infection”) of Mark Tornillo.
McMaster is known as Dangerous Toys frontman, but also as the first singer of cult prog metal Watchtower.
Accept released the following statement via social media: “As Mark is still on the road to recovery, he has been advised to rest a little more before hitting the stage for the remainder of the current US tour. (We’ve sent him all the soup on earth.) However, Accept’s friend and outrageously brilliant Metal/ Rock singer, Jason McMaster, has been awesome enough to step in until Mark is back….for what will now be a one of a kind, unique Accept show! History in the making!! Jason is extremely familiar with Accept’s vintage material, is a world class lead singer with spectacular stage presence and the guys are totally fired up to give you a sensational performance! See you there!! It’s gonna be a unique and thrilling show! We thank you again for all the kind wishes regarding Mark’s health. He is very grateful and says they help tremendously!”.
Accept had canceled its concert in Vineland, New Jersey, due to Tornillo’s illness.
