Chickenfoot: Hear new single - Big Foot

Chickenfoot are finally back with “Big Foot,” the first single from the band upcoming album, “Chickenfoot III.”

The song will be on radio and iTunes on Monday, but it’s now making the rounds online…so you don’t have to wait for old media to catch up while you check it out.

“Chickenfoot III” hits stores September 27 and there’s talk of a tour starting in November. With drummer Chad Smith returning to the Red Hot Chili Peppers – who have their own album and tour to do – Chickenfoot is in the process of auditioning some players to see who can fill Smith’s shoes in his absence.

"That's the biggest disappointment about the whole thing," singer Sammy Hagar told Rolling Stone recently, adding the band has auditioned several drummers and have an audition with Kenny Aronoff (John Mellencamp, John Fogerty, Smashing Pumpkins). "He's going to spend a couple days with this and were just going to jam and if he fits. It's got to be the chemistry. Kenny can play that's for sure and we all like him. He's kind of like Chad – he's kind of crazy and he hits so f**king hard that he beats his drum set to the ground that after every show he needs a new drum set."
