I’ve studied Scott and the people Scott studied, and other singers of the era. “I mean, not cocky confidence, but I know my shit, I know what I’m doing. Gutt said that he felt like he had the STP gig “before I even got in the room, to tell you the truth, just because if you don’t feel that way, you’re probably not gonna get it.
So I called my buddy in New York who knows everybody in the music industry, and I was, like, ‘Hey, did they ever find a singer?’ And he was, like, ‘You know what? I’ll send ’em your stuff right now.’ And three days later, I got a call.” And then when I got back, I was driving and I heard… I can’t remember what song it was, but a Stone Temple Pilots song came on the radio. Regarding how he came to try out for STP, Jeff said: “I had heard about, but I was on tour in the Middle East with my band at the time, so I was, like, doing my own thing, and that was everything that I had going on. And it just happened that it came together like that.” “And after the show, there was a musician who said, ‘Hey, man, you should check this guy out.’ And that’s where I kind of heard of him first - it was through that guy. “We were playing Pine Knob - I don’t know what it’s called now I know it as Pine Knob - up in Detroit, which is where from,” the bassist said. Robert DeLeo said that he first found out about Gutt while he was on the road with the Hollywood Vampires. He has spent the last year secretly writing and recording new material in Redondo Beach, California with bandmembers Dean DeLeo, Robert DeLeo and Eric Kretz.
Gutt originally auditioned for Stone Temple Pilots in September 2016 and was officially named the band’s new singer in May 2017. Gutt, who was a runner-up in season three of the reality television music competition show created by Simon Cowell, was announced as the band’s latest singer during a SiriusXM special earlier tonight (Tuesday, November 14) hosted by Eddie Trunk. Stone Temple Pilots have selected one-time “The X Factor” contestant Jeff Gutt as their new vocalist.
