The members of Jane’s Addiction appear to working on new music together – but without frontman Perry Farrell.
The band had a tumultuous 2024. After reforming with their original line-up of singer Farrell, guitarist Dave Navarro, drummer Stephen Perkins and bassist Eric Avery, they released their first new music together for 34 years in the form of the single ‘Imminent Redemption’.
However, during a show in Boston on their North American tour in September, Farrell punched Navarro in the face, leading to the immediate cancellation of the tour and the band’s hiatus due to “a continuing pattern of behaviour and the mental health difficulties” of Farrell.
Now, it seems that Navarro, Avery and Perkins might be back in the studio together again. In a video posted to Avery’s Instagram in which he tagged in his former bandmates, the bassist said: “Writing some more new lines to some of Stephens drumming. Look forward to getting some Mr Navarro on them. 2025!”
The post was then shared by Perkins, but no further information about any collaboration has been shared. Navarro and Avery did form the band Deconstruction in 1993 after the initial dissolution of Jane’s, so it is possible that the musicians are referring to a potential revival of that group.
