On May 11, STONE TEMPLE PILOTS took part in an interview and acoustic performance in the 102.9 The Buzz "Acoustic Den." Check out video footage of their appearance below. STP's self-titled seventh studio effort was released on March 16 and is the band's first with new singer Jeff Gutt. Gutt made his live debut with the band last November in Los Angeles. The band recently did its first round of dates in support of the new album and will join forces with BUSH and THE CULT for the first time this summer for the "tri-headlining" "Revolution 3 Tour". The North American amphitheater trek begins on July 18 in Nashville and will hit an additional 19 cities over six weeks before concluding in Phoenix, Arizona on September 2. Each group will perform a full set in a different order each night. STONE TEMPLE PILOTS bassist Robert DeLeo told The Morning Call that Jeff is "doing his version" of STP's classic songs when they perform live. "It's not an easy situation for anyone to be in," he said. "[Original STP singer] Scott [Weiland] had such an indelible mark on these songs, and the way he performed these songs.

And Jeff has a good handle on how to put these songs across in his way."
