## Caption

This week, John Torra, 23, of North Massapequa, was named the new lead singer of Quiet Riot after the band held open call auditions to find a new frontman. 

Torra not only submitted his audition videos to management for consideration, he also posted them online and they went viral. People were stunned at how close he sounded to Quiet Riot’s original lead singer, the late Kevin DuBrow, who died in 2007.

At age 12, Torra was listening to Quiet Riot’s 1983 multiplatinum album, "Metal Health." "It was the album I’d always play in my headphones from start to finish," he told Newsday. "'Metal Health' is one of those records you never get tired of. At night, I’d even fall asleep to it."
