Scott Stapp has formally been welcomed—with arms wide open—into the bass music community. Wooli and Trivecta have tapped the Creed frontman for an anthemic collaboration called “Light Up The Sky.” “Light Up The Sky” is a story of growth and how change comes from within.

Stapp’s distinct timbre adds to the commanding feel of the arrangement, helping cultivate an inspirational atmosphere.  In his first foray into electronic music, everything felt natural for Stapp. “When I first heard the track, I instantly started recording melodies and lyrics. The piano, builds, crescendos, drops, and overall vibes just connect...

Creed’s Scott Stapp to Portray Frank Sinatra in New Movie About Ronald Reagan

When you think of Frank Sinatra, you probably don’t envision Scott Stapp, the former lead singer of Creed. But for those whose first impression of Sinatra comes from next year’s Reagan (a Ronald Reagan biopic starring Dennis Quaid), that’s what they’ll get. Stapp will play the legendary singer (as first reported by Billboard and SPIN can confirm) in the upcoming Sean McNamara-directed film. The cast also includes the talented Penelope Ann Miller, Kevin Dillon (better known as everyone’s favorite handsome brother in Entourage), and ancient actor-turned-Trump supporter, Jon Voight. It’s an odd cast, but maybe that’s just what the doctor ordered to kick off Stapp’s acting career. Either way, the experienced frontman is excited to portray such a legendary artist on the...

Even Scott Stapp’s Own Kids Make Fun of His ‘Over the Top’ Singing

Creed is the band everyone likes to make fun of, and it’s mostly because of Scott Stapp’s at times comically over-the-top singing style. Thankfully, the vocalist has a good sense of humor about it.

I’m all about picking on myself. It’s all good man.” “It’s actually helped me as a singer because I’ve heard that and I’ve intentionally enunciated differently on different words and syllables,” Stapp added. “So thank you world, for pointing out a consistent patt...
