John 5 Announces Winter Tour, New Album Soon

John 5 has just announced a winter tour and with it will come a new album, entitled Invasion. Mr. 5 is teasing a track called “Zoinks!”, inspired by Scooby-Doo, to be released on New Year’s Day. The video for the track will be directed by Matt Zane with animation from Disney animator Brett Broggs (Frozen, Wreck-It Ralph), and also feature the voice acting talents of Nikki Sixx, Susan Olsen (known for her role as Cindy Brady on The Brady Bunch), and Fred Coury. Coury also is credited for scoring the video alongside John 5.
