Despite being the lead singer and guitarist for his solo act, Tremonti, for almost 10 years now, Mark Tremonti admits he's not all that comfortable pulling double duty. He told Metal Talk that while he really enjoys singing, being the face of the band isn't his favorite.
Tremonti explained, “Singing to me is a lot of fun. I don't feel the pressures that I feel with guitar playing when I sing . . . What I don't like doing is being a frontman. I don't like having to entertain in between songs. That's something that I'm sure I'll get better at over the years but that's something that is just not my type of personality. I like to be the guy on the side, playing my role — I like singing and playing, but as soon as I've got to do the talking in between, that's the tough part. That's something you can't practice, you just got to do it on stage.”
Of course, Tremonti has also played guitar with Creed and Alter Bridge.
