In July 2001, Tyfoid Mary lost its frontman, Vince Stott, in a fatal car accident. While such a tragedy would cause most bands to hang it up for good, Tyfoid persevered and found a new voice in Jerry Harper. He had his work cut out for him, as Stott was a well-regarded vocalist. But Harper — a giant in his own right at 6’5″ and nearly 300 pounds — brought with him a monster set of pipes and an imposing stage presence. The result was two stellar releases — 2002’s Nu Strain and last year’s brilliant Quarantine — and a shit ton of momentum. Talk about resuscitation.
