Twisted Sister Announces First North American Shows With Sebastian Bach on Vocals

Veteran glam-metal band Twisted Sister has revealed the first North American concert dates featuring former Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach as the group’s lead vocalist. The newly announced shows mark the first time Bach will officially perform with the band on stage as part of their updated touring lineup.

The performances are part of a limited run of appearances scheduled for later this year. According to the band, the shows will not interfere with Bach’s solo touring commitments, which will continue alongside the special concerts with Twisted Sister.

Bach was recruited earlier in 2026 after longtime singer Dee Snider stepped away from the band due to health-related concerns. Guitarists Jay Jay French and Eddie “Fingers” Ojeda announced that Bach would front the group for a handful of select dates, keeping the band’s classic songs alive on stage.

Despite the lineup change, Snider publicly supported the decision. The singer said Bach had his “full blessing” to perform the material live, noting that the former Skid Row vocalist is one of the few singers capable of delivering the band’s demanding catalog.

The concerts represent the latest chapter for Twisted Sister, the New Jersey-formed heavy metal band best known for hits such as “We’re Not Gonna Take It” and “I Wanna Rock.” Formed in the early 1970s, the group became one of the defining acts of the 1980s glam-metal era and remains influential in hard rock and heavy metal decades later.

With Bach now stepping into the frontman role for these select appearances, the shows are expected to deliver classic Twisted Sister songs performed with a new voice while honoring the band’s long-standing legacy.
