Craig Nunenmacher
Independent - United States
Overview
Craig Nunenmacher joined the Black Label Society in July of 2000 while playing for Crowbar, who was touring with BLS at the time. Original BLS drummer Phil Ondich left the band mid-tour, and to keep the tour on the road, Craig filled in for Phil, pulling double-duty in both Crowbar and BLS for the rest of the tour. A few weeks into that tour, he was asked to join the band permanently.
In 2003, during a short break from Black Label Society (as front-man Zakk Wylde was focusing on a full-time tour with Ozzy Osbourne), Craig reunited with Kirk Windstein and wrote and recorded Crowbar's Lifesblood for the Downtrodden album, which also featured Pantera's Rex Brown on bass, and a guest performance on the track "Lifesblood" by former BLS bassist Steve Gibb on guitar.
In March 2008 it was announced that Nunenmacher's albums — "Crowbar" (1993), "Time Heals Nothing" (1995) and "Live+1" EP (1995) will be reissued in Europe on April 21, 2008 with bonus and multimedia tracks.Craig continued to perform and record with BLS until early 2010.
