TESLA guitarist Frank Hannon has once again said that he doesn’t know when drummer Troy Luccketta will return to the band.

In September 2021, TESLA drummer Troy Luccketta announced that he would “take a little time from the road” to spend with family and friends. He is being temporarily replaced at TESLA‘s gigs by Steve Brown, the younger brother of former DOKKEN drummer Mick Brown.

Frank discussed his longtime bandmate’s absence from TESLA‘s gigs during a recent interview with Canada’s The Metal Voice. He said: “We’re just allowing the time for things to work themselves out. He’s got things that he’s dealing with.

“Touring is not an easy life, man,” he explained. “It’s a very difficult thing being out there on a bus, with everybody crammed in that tight situation. And when you’ve got stuff going on at home, those things need to be taken care of. But hey, man, he’s a long-standing member of the band.

“We’ll work it out,” Frank added. “Time will work things out. He’s a brother, and, like I said, time will work things out. The founding members of the band are together and Steve Brown is playing drums for us at the moment and really doing a great job. And we’re just happy to be able to keep on working.”

Hannon went on to praise Steve‘s contributions to TESLA, saying: “Steve is not only ‘Wild’ Mick‘s little brother but he’s also a member of our local community here in Sacramento. We’ve known him since he was a little guy. He used to come watch us play when he was a teenager. And he has done other shows for us in the past, filling in for Troy. So he’s a member of our family as well.”

When Luccketta first shared the news of his decision to stay off the road, he wrote: “I am happy and well, and couldn’t be more grateful to my bandmates for this opportunity. I am also looking forward to some musical ventures closer to home. In my absence please show some love to Steve Brown. Steve is a dear friend, and great drummer! He has played with OLEANDER, Ronnie Montrose just to name a few. He is one of Sacramento’s finest, The perfect choice so to speak!”

In August, TESLA released the official music video for the band’s new single, “Time To Rock!”. The track arrived five months after TESLA released the official lyric video for the 2021 standalone single “Cold Blue Steel”.

Originally released in August 2021, “Cold Blue Steel” was the first TESLA song to ever be produced by the bandmembers themselves.
