AFI frontman Davey Havok has kept busy in the downtime from his mainstay, with the musician teaming up with members of No Doubt to form a new band.
Prominent international publication Billboard received the first confirmation of the new outfit, writing, "AFI frontman Davey Havok has joined forces with No Doubt's Tom Dumont, Tony Kanal and Adrian Young to form an as-yet-unnamed band, reps for the group confirmed to Billboard. The quartet, which sources say is managed by Pat Magnarella (Green Day), already has completed an album and is seeking a label deal."
...So, essentially, the new band is No Doubt minus Gwen Stefani.
Havok will juggle both musical priorities in 2016. Previously, AFI bassist Hunter Burgan, observing the band's situation, stated, "I know that many of you want to know what’s up with AFI. I can’t tell you much at the moment, but we have plans for 2016. Circle that year on your calendars.”
