Drummer Josh Freese has found something to do while his band A Perfect Circle is on hiatus. Freese will sit behind the drum kit for former Police singer and bassist Sting, who's getting back to his roots with a four-piece rock band.

Sting and his band hit the road with the "Broken Music Tour" which starts on April 1 at San Jose State University in California.

According to press agency Reuters, Freese reacted:
"I'm a little bit more on the rock side of things than on the sophisticated jazz-pop side of things. But I'm not going to go out and be overpowering — if anything I'll tone it down a bit at first so I don't freak anybody out."

When not playing for A Perfect Circle, Freese is one of the busiest session drummers totday. has worked with Suicidal Tendencies, Avril Lavigne, Evanescence, Staind, Puddle Of Mudd, Seether, Static-X, The Offspring and others.
