The band members chose Fortune after 13 weeks of competition on their televised series called Rock Star: INXS on CBS.
The first song from Fortune with INXS, "Easy, Easy" is being released today. The first CD from the group with the new singer, entitled Switch, is scheduled to be released on November 29. It will be the first CD since the suicide of their lead singer, Michael Hutchence, in 1997.
"We’re a band now," said Fortune after hearing that he was chosen.
