Brett Allen Scallions (born on December 21, 1971 in Brownsville, Tennessee) is an American musician. He was the lead vocalist for the band Fuel from 1993 to 2006. [ [http://www.kaos2000.net/interviews/fuelcarl99.html KAOS 2000 Magazine interview w/ Carl Bell] ] During that time, the band released multiple albums including the double platinum "Something Like Human". He left the band because of personal reasons and disagreements in the band, not from a torn ligament in his throat as previously reported.

After Scallions left Fuel, he joined a band called The X's playing bass. The X's released one album before going on "hiatus." He also recently joined Circus Diablo, a Los Angeles-based rock band while simultaneously playing with the X's.

In March 2007, Scallions was selected as the singer for Riders on the Storm [http://www.raymanzarek.us/rots.html New Lead Singer for Riders!!] , Riders on the Storm website] , a project featuring former The Doors members Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek.

He is currently married to Abby Gennet, guitarist and lead singer of Slunt.

Future Plans

“Jonathan Mover who played drums on the first Fuel record, he and I are doing a record together where I am doing the bulk of the writing, I’ll be singing it, and playing guitar, and I’ll have some guest guitar players come in. It’s very exciting for me; it’s a record I’ve dreamed of doing for a really long time.”

The band name has not yet been revealed.

“We’ve got a few names in the hat right now, but I’m reluctant to say any of them right now because I wanna make sure that we have the name ready to go when it comes time to put it out.
