JD Fortune is back and will tour a setlist of INXS songs for Australia in October.
Canadian Fortune (real name Jason Dean Bennison) won his role as INXS lead singer in the reality TV show ‘Rock Star: INXS’. Fortune was lead singer of INXS for two and a half years and clocked up one album ‘Switch’ (2005) with the band.
Switch’ generated the hit song ‘Pretty Vegas’ (no 9 Australia, no 37 USA).
Fortune says he found out he was no longer the singer for INXS when he woke up one morning and read it on their website. Since leaving INXS, Fortune has not recorded an album but some of his unreleased music has been released in TV shows like ‘Miami Medical’ and ‘Criminal Minds’.
