After months of speculation, Whitesnake has announced its new bass player/singer is Michael Devin.

Devin has been playing with Lynch Mob, along with new Whitesnake drummer, BRIAN TICHY. This union completes the new Whitesnake line-up alongside guitarists Doug Aldrich, Reb Becch and keyboardist Timothy Drury for the new album in the works.

"It’s an honour to be welcomed into the Whitesnake family. I’m a big fan," said Devin. Whitesnake is notorious for exciting musicianship, David’s history is rich, and I’m very proud to be here."

The album is being recorded for release in early 2011. The band will be also returning to touring.
