Brett Allen Scallions (born December 21, 1971) is an American musician. He is currently the lead vocalist, rhythm guitarist, and lyricist of post-grunge band Fuel. Born in Brownsville, Tennessee, Scallions gained recognition serving as the original lead vocalist for the rock band Fuel from 1993 to 2006.〔(KAOS 2000 Magazine interview w/ Carl Bell ) ''Kaos2000 Magazine.'' March 3, 1999.〕 During that time, the band released three major-label albums including the double platinum ''Something Like Human''. His initial stint with the band ended in February 2006, with Scallions citing personal reasons, a lack of passion and internal disagreements within the band as the major contributing factors to his departure.〔(Brett Scallions Tells His Story ) ''Alternative Addiction'' August 5, 2007.〕 Scallions has denied vocal issues and the negated vocal surgery rumors as reasons for his leaving. Scallions has been ranked in the ''Top 100 Heavy Metal Vocalists'' by ''Hit Parader'' (#50). ==Post-Fuel / other projects== After leaving Fuel, Scallions joined bands The X's and Circus Diablo playing bass. Both bands would ultimately become one-album projects and conclude shortly after subsequent tours. In March 2007, Scallions was selected as the singer for Riders on the Storm,〔(New Lead Singer for Riders!! ), Riders on the Storm website〕 a project featuring former The Doors members Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek. In August 2007, Scallions told to Alternative Addiction about a project he had been working on with an old Fuel bandmate. "Jonathan Mover who played drums on the first Fuel record, he and I are doing a record together where I am doing the bulk of the writing, I'll be singing it, and playing guitar, and I'll have some guest guitar players come in. It's very exciting for me; it's a record I've dreamed of doing for a really long time." Scallions continued, "We've got a few names in the hat right now, but I'm reluctant to say any of them right now because I wanna make sure that we have the name ready to go when it comes time to put it out." No other information on this project has since been given by Scallions or Mover and there is some speculation that this may have been a precursor to the later World Fire Brigade project. Brett Scallions contributed lead vocals to the charity single "Something to Believe", released by the band Hollow on iTunes via Koch Records on March 9, 2010.〔(Gears of Rock Review "Something to Believe" ) ''Gears of Rock.''
