Papa Roach rocker recovering after throat surgery

Papa Roach frontman Jacoby Shaddix is back on the road after undergoing vocal polyp removal surgery.
The rockers had to scrap a trio of gigs as the singer prepared to undergo the surgery last month (Aug17), but he’s been recovering well and is taking the recuperation process seriously, according to bandmate Tobin Esperance.
Speaking to Metalshop, the bass player says, “The first two shows went really well, and his voice is holding up and he sounds great and he feels good.
“He just has to stick to his… strict regimen of just conserving his voice, like, not talking too much during the day, warming up and eating the right kind of foods that don’t agitate the vocal cords, like acid reflux-type stuff.”
It’s not Shaddix’s first throat surgery – he had a nodule removed from his vocal cord in 2012.
