Reality show winner and pop star ‘unveiled' as mysterious masked performer President ahead of Download Festival slot
THE identity of a mysterious mask-wearing performer who leads new band President has been revealed ahead of its Download Festival performance tomorrow afternoon. The hard-rocking act launched its presidential campaign out of the blue earlier this year with a series of cryptic social media posts. 4 President is playing a 30 minute set at Download tomorrow afternoon Credit: Instagram More recently the band announced its first rally (headline gig) is taking place on July 30 at The Garage, London. It quickly sold out. Two crushing singles, In The Name of the Father and Fearless, are aural manifestos, acting as a rallying cry for rock and metal lovers to pledge allegiance. Speculation over President's identity has been rife ever since the first images of its frontman wearing a creepy rubber mask went public. A place on the Download Festival bill before a physical release indicated the band's members had some gravitas in the industry. READ MORE ON CHARLIE SIMPSON The consensus is that the singer Busted frontman Charlie Simpson. President's songs bear a striking resemblance to Charlie's trademark gravelly vocals, particularly from his time leading Fightstar in the early noughties. That band reunited last year for a sellout gig at Wembley Arena to celebrate its 20th anniversary. Most read in Music Not only that, but fans have spotted a gap in the front teeth of the singer, which Charlie is known to have. Beyond the vocal and facial similarities, though, is the fact that the trademark for President's music on Spotify belongs to King of Terror. The Masked Singer crowns Charlie Simpson winner as Rhino revealed The sole director for that firm on Companies House is one Charles Robert Simpson, while documents show his wife Anna holds 50 percent share stake in the busines s. Though the mystery may be solved, the concept is still creative and refreshing. Faceless acts aren't particularly unusual in modern rock - Ghost have been doing it ghoulishly well for years and Download headliners Sleep Token are currently the genre's biggest poster boys - but President's committal to its theme remains intriguing. And mystery still surrounds the remaining members of the group with former Bring Me The Horizon star Jordan Fish and members of Sleep Token and Bullet For My Valentine tipped to be involved. If you're at Download this weekend check them out on the Dogtooth Stage at 4.25pm tomorrow. 4 It appears Charlie Simpson is the man behind the President mask Credit: Getty 4 Charlies is best known for his work in Busted with James Bourne and Matt Willis Credit: Getty 4 Was President inspired by his time on The Masked Singer?
