Scott Stapp reveals new track “Deadman’s Trigger” from his new album

April 2024, Scott Stapp will reunite with his Creed bandmates for the first time in a decade

Scott Stapp,Grammy winning songwriter, platinum solo artist, and voice of Creed, has released the bombastically ominous Deadman’s Trigger as the fourth single from his upcoming solo album, Higher Power, which is set for release on March 15, 2024 on Napalm Records.

On an album of metamorphosis forged by loss, frustration, betrayal and near defeat, Deadman’s Trigger warns of mutually assured destruction when pushed to the breaking point, until the melodic chorus arrives like salvation. The charged-up banger strobes with bold sonic swagger as one of the album’s hardest-hitting tracks.

One of the most iconic voices in rock, Scott Stapp first emerged as the high-energy, post-grunge frontman of Creed. With anthems like Higher, My Own Prison, My Sacrifice, One Last Breath and With Arms Wide Open, the band sold over 55 million albums, including a Diamond certification. Throughout the early 2000’s, Creed broke airplay records, sold out arenas, earned countless Billboard Music Awards and American Music Awards, and a Grammy for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group.

As a solo artist, Stapp has released the Platinum-certified album The Great Divide (2005), Proof Of Life (2013) which featured his first solo #1, Slow Suicide, and 2019’s The Space Between The Shadows. In April 2024, Stapp will reunite with his Creed bandmates for the first time in a decade.

On Higher Power, Stapp is “primed for a big decade, sounding just as powerful as he did at half his age with a sense of newfound heaviness resting beneath his iconic voice” (Loudwire). The album describes a metamorphosis forged by loss, frustration, betrayal and near defeat. It features stand-out performances by Dorothy, guitar god Yiannis Papadopoulos, and a co-writing appearance by multi-Grammy winning songwriter and musician Steve McEwan.

The album was produced by Marti Frederiksen and Scott Stevens and follows Stapp’s 2019 The Space Between The Shadows, which debuted at #3 on the US Current Rock Albums chart, the US Current Hard Music Albums chart, and the UK Official Rock & Metal Chart.
