Kyuss Lives!

Kyuss Lives!

Kyuss Lives! is a short-lived reunion of former members of Kyuss. It forms around original Kyuss lead vocalist John Garcia, who tours in early 2010 under the name Garcia Plays Kyuss and continues through 2010 with shows that feature Kyuss members Nick Oliveri and Brant Bjork. In November 2010, Garcia, Oliveri and Bjork announce a reunion tour under the Kyuss Lives! name.

The group includes Arsenal guitarist Bruno Fevery, who fills in for the absent Josh Homme. Garcia says there is no Kyuss without Homme and expresses hope that they can write together in future. In August 2012, the courts rule that Garcia and Bjork cannot release recordings, studio or live, under the Kyuss Lives! name, although they can continue using it for live shows. Later in 2012, the band announces that it changes its name to Vista Chino.
