The Slovakian melodic metal band Signum Regis are proud to announce their new vocalist: Mayo Petranin [Castaway, Dirty Game].
Ronnie König of Signum Regis comments:
“Mayo Petranin has been with us as a guest singer since the last autumn. We played several gigs together, did a lot of rehearsing and spent a quite a bit of time together. During those months, we were able to tune in to the same vibe musically, we got to know each other and became friends. Being so happy with Mayo’s work and his interpretation of our songs, we are now naturally moving forward to the next step: Mayo is now officially the singer and frontman of Signum Regis.”
