Guitarist Kiki Wong is the new member of The Smashing Pumpkins replacing Jeff Schroeder, who resigned from the band last year.
Wong, who is known for her platforms such as TikTok or Instagram, has participated with artists such as Taylor Swift and Usher; She was selected by The Smashing Pumpkins after an online audition that featured more than 10 contestants.
“Reviewing the work of these incredible musicians was a huge and very worthy effort. First of all, I really want to thank everyone who submitted material for consideration. It was not an easy decision. I was a Kiki fan before she sent us her material for consideration and it's fantastic to have someone with her insight become part of our band family. I look forward to touring with her as part of our crazy circus,” says Billy Corgan.
