POWERRAGE, the band featuring former EXCITER guitarist John Ricci, has recruited Jo Steel (ICE WAR) as the group's new vocalist.
On November 9, POWERRAGE shared the following message via social media: "Hey POWERRAGE supporters, we have found a new singer! Jo Steel, he's from our hometown, Ottawa, and we are very excited about our continued journey to deliver raw and brutal metal to fans all over the globe. We will have photos in a few weeks.
"I should mention we also have upcoming shows in the USA; those dates will be announced at a later date! In the meantime, our rehearsals are very loud and very intense! LOL!"
In September, POWERRAGE announced that it was seeking a new vocalist following the apparent recent departure of Jacques Bélanger.
In addition to Steel and Ricci, POWERRAGE's current lineup includes bassist Todd Pilon (formerly of WITCHKILLER) and drummer Lucas Dery.
Bélanger, who previously sang on three EXCITER albums: "The Dark Command" (1997),"Blood Of Tyrants" (2000) and "New Testament" (2004),was the featured vocalist on POWERRAGE's debut album, "Beast", which arrived in April 2026 via High Roller Records. The LP was mixed and mastered by Dan Swanö at Unisound and it features artwork by Mario Lopez.
